I build the cvs outside my standard tree (i.e in /opt) and I cannot do a clean make install.
Shouldnt it be GNOME_ICON_DIR = $(prefix)/usr/share/icons/gnome
Well, configure[.in] asks pkg-config about gnome's `prefix' folder:
<snip>
GNOME_ICON_DIR=`$PKG_CONFIG --variable=prefix libgnomeui-2.0`/share/icons/gnome
</snip>
The additional mime type icons *must* be installed in this folder, as the search paths are hardcoded in libgnome[ui]. I also have my Gnome 2.8.2 build living in /opt/gnome-2.8, and in the Makefile it reads
<snip> GNOME_ICON_DIR = /opt/gnome-2.8/share/icons/gnome </snip>
Are you sure pkg-config searched the right lib/pkgconfig folder first? I use the environment setting
<snip> PKG_CONFIG_PATH=/opt/gnome-2.8/lib/pkgconfig:$PKG_CONFIG_PATH </snip>
to this end.
Hope this helps,
Ok, it works this way. But I dont want to have my own gnome but only my own balsa. So my install scheme tries to install the icons in the root tree. So, I've to do that as root and I don't like to break my system this way.

Thanks and regards
