Installing 4.2

[James Lee]

Hi,

I'm trying to install xfce 4.2 on Solaris 5.8 on Sun
UltraSparc machine, using the new Installation Wizard.
I only compile xfce
Unfortunately, I have problems compiling xfce-mcs-plugins :


In file included from /usr/include/string.h:18,
                 from /depot/X11R6/include/X11/Xlibint.h:212,
                 from display_plugin.c:29:

gmake: *** [all] Error 2
!! Failed to build xfce-mcs-plugins, see the errors above
!! for details on the problem.

It seems there is a conflict in bcopy function in the system files.

My question : It appears that I probably don't need the plugins since 
most of it won't run on the Solaris (short of compiling a lot more things).
so how do I disable mcs-plugins in the installation wizard?


Thanks.


James.

p/s: the Installer terminal requires gtk+2.4, whereas all the others require
only gtk+2.2. Shouldn't we make it consistent, otherwise someone may install it
on 2.2 and then find that it won't work?
