Thanks very much for your prompt reply. Alas, I still apparently have failure to report.
After installing Ming from their website, version 0.4.2, I ran MAKE CHECK again. Still it seems to be ERRORing out; the screen log is located at www.wg3.net/gnashcheckcompile.txt. N .B.: This time the file is comparatively t9iny -- it's only 47K this time. On Thursday 30 July 2009, Benjamin Wolsey wrote: > > Hi there!!

Yet I thought I saw a number of error messages at its bottom. Still, I feel inclined to take your word for it ... N.B.: What is supposed to happen when I MAKE CHECK? If any of the tests are supposed to happen right then, they aren't happening. If the tests aren't supposed to happen right then, how do I run them? Again, thanks very much! :) -- ................................................ Willy Gommel http://www.wg3.net
