XFFM & XFDESKTOP never built -- the situation is unchanged

[Olivier Fourdan]

Lenny,

I know that page and that doesn't help me much.

Now, if that comes from our Makefiles (which are automatically generated
btw) and version numbering , then tell me why
xfce-mcs-plugins/plugins/gtk_common compiles while xfdesktop/common
doesn't, the Makefiles.am being totally similar ?

Moreover, xfdesktop/common is a noinst static lib, it doesn't have nor
need any version numbering. It's just a piece of code put in a static
lib so it can be used in different places in xfdesktop. It's not
installed at all. It is used only during the build process.

Also, from the files you send, why using --enable-rpath while the page
you sent clearly states that [dyld] "eliminates the need for "rpath"
options and the ldconfig/ld.so.cache system."

I'm sorry, but you'll have to provide a fix otherwise that will stay a
won't fix issue. And I would add that this fix has to be quick, we are
about to start the "release candidate" cycle very soon.

Cheers,
Olivier.
