I needed something in bootstrap/, i.e. freetype. After I installed it,
Gimp began to work, which it didn't before, because of the freetype
version. Thus I decided to try installing everything in bootstrap/, in
order to have totem working, as explained before.

Was it really impossible to understand? I'm sorry, but English is not
my mother tongue.

Somebody, maybe you, already told me, but with no more explanations.
Since the garnome hierarchy is completely separated from the normal
hierarchy, where is the problem?

It's a Debian Sid (i.e. unstable; I love unstability). After this error,
I did install Xft from bootstrap/, and voil� (sorry for my French),
mozilla and firefox compiled OK!
Moreover, I finished installing everything from bootstrap/, including
libiconv, then compiled again Totem, and after that it is working!
Thus, installing things from bootstrap/ seems very useful indeed...
