Some of our prospective clients have data in Access .mdb format, and we can help them by converting those data to another format. Today I discovered MDB Tools, and tried building both 0.5 and 0.6pre1, but both failed because I do not have Gnome installed. However, libglade is installed here. I have run only Xfce and have found that trying to install Gnome on Slackware is so much of a PITA that I won't waste more time trying. Is there a way to build mdb-tools so we can use the command line conversion API without the GUI which requires Gnome? Thanks, Rich -- Richard B.
