I seem to remember having this problem in the past, and I seem to remember it being a difference in how different major revisions of gnome expect to be built. Like, gnome 1 vs. 2? I also seem to remember that the file/package names for some gnome libraries in debian were different than I expected. I tried to build some gnome apps for cygwin and eventually gave up: the dependencies list for some gnome apps is huge, and on cygwin availability can be an issue. I'm sure that someone with greater need would have found a way, but I wasn't that person. Not sure how much of what I just said was on-topic, but good luck! -- monique Unless you need to share ultra-sensitive super-spy stuff with me, please don't email me directly.
