Fred,
Yes it doescontain it!
Although it actually appears to be compiling now. The only thing that
happened was my partner just turned off the light in her ancestors altar
which triggered a surge protector and turned off my computer. After
restarting I went into the Flightgear folder and typed make once again
(vowing it to be the last time) and it seems to be compiling.
Dont ask me - I have rotated compilers twice, recompiled simgear and other
bits and pieces numerous times and after all that all I really needed was a
power surge.
I swear the most mysterious things happen on my computer. You may not believe
this but my girlfriend is actually banned from coming around my side of the
desk as when she does my PC starts screwing up. I should really tell one of
those paranormal researchers about her as it is really very weird.
Maybe I am being haunted by her ancestors? Maybe my PC hates me? Maybe I
should go to bed? regardless of the answers to these questions thanks to all
who tried to help me this evening.
