Dear List,
                 I simply can't get Nautilus(-2.8.2) to build against
medusa(-0.5.1), as suggested in Book.  Moreover, I believe that
it is IMPOSSIBLE.  Building with the medusa library invisible:
build OK.  Building with medusa library visible: code is
activated in the nautilus tree which refers to non-existent
nautilus_window_*  functions (well, they ain't in the Nautilus
source tree, nor even declared in that tree nor among my installed
headers).

  I am following the Book versions of all the GNOME libraries
scrupulously, except that I have updated GTK+ to 2.7.5, which
is needed by a recent version of pygtk(-2.7.1) .   I doubt that
this matters.

  There has not been a release of medusa since the 0.5.1,
which is supposed to be usable (thus nautilus-2.8.2/configure).
I have seen interesting claims in the CVS comments that there
is (or was) an official GNOME 0.6 version, but this seems to
have been be a figment of the imagination, or a trick of
perspective, or something.

  I've done nothing unexpected in the configuration:  translating out of my
own scripts, I get

GNOME_PREFIX=/usr
(as for all my other GNOME 2 stuff, agreeing with pkg-config)

../nautilus-2.8.2/configure --prefix="$GNOME_PREFIX" \
   --libexecdir="$GNOME_PREFIX"/sbin \
   --sysconfdir=/etc/gnome

  I haven't yet tried this with the 2.10 GNOME set,
(as suggested in the live version of Book), but I don't believe
that anything relevant has changed since Book 6.0.

  Has anyone ever got this to work?  Instructions would
definitely be helpful!

Bernard Leak.
