When trying to run build-cross.sh I got the error > message "checking whether the C compiler (gcc ) works... no)" build-cross is for building the windows version using cross compilers on linux. You probably don't have the correct cross compilers installed. Try autogen.sh > If there is a linux distribution that you know that the build scripts > work on without problems I would like to that distribution instead of > Ubuntu 8.04.1. I have a spare computer where I have my linux > installation and I will not use it for anything else than building Workrave. How about apt-get install workrave? Any distribution should work if the right packages are installed (autoconf. automake, gtk+ gtkmm, glib, ....)
