Re: [Nautilus-list] problems building from cvs

[Ryan Muldoon <rpmuldoon students wisc edu>]

Here is the output of autogen.sh when I try and build nautilus from cvs:
[ryan luminosity nautilus]$ ./autogen.sh
I am going to run ./configure with no arguments - if you wish 
to pass any to it, please specify them on the ./autogen.sh command line.
Running gettextize...  Ignore non-fatal messages.

You should update your own `aclocal.m4' by adding the necessary
macro packages gettext.m4, lcmessage.m4 and progtest.m4 from
the directory `/usr/share/aclocal'

Now type 'make' to compile nautilus.
