Re: [orca-list] Installing tar.gz files

[Willie Walker <William Walker Sun COM>]

Hi James:

If you're talking about the orca tar.gz files at 
http://ftp.gnome.org/pub/GNOME/sources/orca/, then these are just source 
tarballs.  You build them very similarly to how you build sources from 
svn, except you run ./configure instead of ./autogen.sh.

In addition, the tar.gz files are always going to be behind the SVN 
sources since the tar.gz files represent a snapshot in time.

Hope this helps,

Will
