Devs, After the frustration with something killing gnome settings daemon on my openSuSE 11.0 install, I decided to build gnome with jhbuild to crosscheck with something I would have debug information for. I configured jhbuild per the website, ran jhbuild sanitycheck and bootstrap and got a clean bill of health -- no errors, no requirements not met. Building gnome 2.30, jhbuild failed on step 17/238 due to the missing dependency of ffi.h (Foreign Function Interface library). Installing the library and the continuing the build worked fine. It might be a good idea for a ffi.h check to be added during the jhbuild sanity check. That way, the 2.30 build will keep running after you kick it off and then go the sleep :p -- David C.
