Re: Compiling gtkextra-2 problems

Hi Chuck,
 I guess you are using RH > 7.3. I'm running RH7.2 at home and
everything works. I think that the problem is the new automake/autoconf. I
wonder if there is someone out there in the list that has managed to
modify the autogen script to be compliant with the new automake. That
would help a lot.
Thanks!
