Re: Jhbuild and Debian Lenny

["John Carr" <john carr unrouted co uk>]

Further to below, I have managed to get mugshot compilation to run on my gutsy box. I believe this will work on lenny when I get chance to try it...

In the end, I had to let configure fail, then [4] start shell. at which point I:

./autogen.sh --with-gecko-sdk=/usr/lib/firefox/ --with-xpidl=/usr/lib/firefox/xpidl --with-gecko-idl=/usr/share/idl/firefox/ --with-gecko-headers=/usr/include/firefox/ --prefix=/correct/path/

I then exited back to jhbuild which carried on as normal. I suspect my gnome-vfs problem might be solvable in a similar way. In either case, I have no idea how to "fix" jhbuild to work without this manual intervention....

Hi guys

Trying to get the online desktop stuff running on debian so I can have a play, especially with web login driver and the python data model stuff.

Jhbuild has been an absolute nightmare, and I've gotten quite far only to be beaten down at the end. Right now I can't get mugshot or gnome-vfs to compile.

Gnome-vfs wouldn't compile at first because of warnings about inline functions that were treated at errors. I tweaked the module set to --disable-more-warnings... Only now Jhbuild is trying to install a compiled library to /usr/lib instead of /home/john/Projects/blah...

I'll e-mail again with the mugshot problem when I get to work... Any suggestions appreciated.
