Re: error in building gypsy

Hi Florian,

I'm not sure if anyone has responded to you yet, but your problem looks
related to one I had today.  My error looks something like this:
|*** Error during phase configure of gypsy: ########## Error running
./autogen.sh --prefix /home/jarrett/gnome-shell/install --libdir
'/home/jarrett/gnome-shell/install/lib' --disable-static
--disable-gtk-doc *** [37/95]|

and it had a lot of similar output text to yours (although I'm not using
64 bit libraries).

Long story short, you need to install gtk-doc-tools (i.e. /sudo aptitude
install gtk-doc-tools/).  It looks like the /--disable-gtk-doc/ flag
isn't quite working for this autogen (install?) script.   You can view
the error yourself by running /./autogen.sh --prefix /opt/gnome --libdir
'/opt/gnome/lib64' --disable-static --disable-gtk-doc /in the terminal
from the gypsy source directory (something like
/~/gnome-shell/source/gypsy/).

Anyway, installing gtk-doc-tools I think might fix your problem.

Cheers

Jarrett
