Hi Paradox, at first you should decide wether you want the plugin being built or not. If you don't need it, building totem may be easier for you. Which are your system specs? (Kernel and Distro type and versions)?
Are you new to using GARNOME? In case, please read http://www.gnome.org/projects/garnome/garnome_man.html (plus FAQs, ...) carefully. As far as I understand, GARNOME is a project meant to build Gnome as a whole. However, you can do modifications that suit your needs much more easy compared to compiling and installing every single package involved. So this goes to totem, too. After downloading GARNOME, please make sure your system meets basic requirements. You'll probably run into trouble when there are different versions of software prerequisites on your system compared those /bootstrap directory. My advice is to uninstall doubles regarding this. After GARNOME has downloaded the sources, you can go into the subtree of each application and apply changes to the .config files. If you really don't know what you're doing, don't try to do that with libraries or other basic stuff (like HAL, DBus,... In fact most of the /freedesktop and /platform software). Totem relies on many previously built packages. Did everything go right with building them? If yes, you could enter the totem subdir and edit the ./config file. *Before* that you should do the following from the totem subtree level: 1. "make clean" (in order to uninstall previous faulty build attempts) 2. "make patch" (to fetch latest totem version) After that you could apply changes to ./config (or Makefiles) later. Please keep in mind to clean up before trying further builds with different configure options. When doing this on the same day, "make cookieclean" can be enough, so you wouldn't have to download the sources again. Otherwise you likely don't know when the wizards apply patches to the source, so it's most safe to use "make patch". Please excuse if you already knew all of that; maybe you find some of it useful.
