Hi,
Typically, I run
autogen.sh --prefix=/usr/people/garry/WorkSpace/dist \
--with-gtk-prefix=/usr/people/garry/WorkSpace/dist \
--enable-ansi \
--enable-debug \
--disable-static \
--disable-perl
autogen.sh is designed to run autoconf, automake, libtool, gettext.
then kick off configure, passing the parameter list to that script,
as noted by Marc and described in gimp/HACKING (was that available
to you to read?). None of the options I use above is mandatory; the
first two assist me in keeping a development gimp environment that
is distinct from a production gimp, the next three assist in
debugging, the last concerning a regrettable difficulty specific
to SGI/Irix (See bug report: http://bugs.gnome.org/db/193/19335),
and which is approaching resolution.
I suggest you experiment with autogen.sh, as described in gimp/HACKING.
If you care to, send me the output by private e-mail if you do not
have any success.
Be good, be well
Garry Osgood
