I didn't know about xfce4-dev-tools, thanks, but for me it still fails |
31 |
to find the headers for the bog-standard gnome libraries. I tried the |
32 |
standard autogen.sh and xdt-autogen, which seems to do much the same |
33 |
thing. |

The unmodified package wants libpanelapplet-2.0, which is older than |
36 |
the version 4.0 installed by gentoo's gnome-panel. I had to edit the |
37 |
config stuff to accept libpanelapplet-4.0. Maybe this xfce package is |
38 |
just too old to work with recent gnome? |
