Wow. I know things are bad in the IT industry right now, but that's an
overreaction. Do you mean there's something so clever about the gtkg build
that autoconf won't handle it anymore?

I don't mean like that. ;) To put it differently, autoconf wasn't working right, and no one could find the problem; I guess automake removed neccessary files for some reason, though I don't really know the specifics. What I do know is that Raphael converted to autoconf rather than deal with it anymore.

Just to parrot my original question, sorry, that doesn't work. With or
without NLS/nm it don't wanna build.


I saw that you'd mentioned NLS, but didn't see anything about nm; just thought I'd include it just in case.

Slackware 9.0, near enough, but that's not the problem. Like I mentioned,
all the binaries I've tracked down are built against GTK2, not surprising
perhaps. They run, but they don't ever put up a window. This is certainly
a GTK2 problem, since it affects other apps such as ethereal. However,
being at a loss to fix this I thought I'd try and obtain a GTK1 binary :>


hmm... ldd shows the executable in the GTK1-gtk-gnutella-0.92.1.tgz package from sourceforge as depending on gtk 1.2. (I seriously doubt I can run it on freebsd, so that's the best info I can give.)

Thanks for the response anyway. From this list I can see I'm not the only
one having problems. I'm just reporting them here in the hope that the
feedback will help improve the build.

The Gnutella performance under Limewire is so much better than gtkg 0.91 that
I'll be staying with it until I sort this 0.92 problem out. If and when...


Meanwhile, kind donations of a binary would be much appreciated, if not
fabulously rewarded.

I can't help with any of these, though someone here may be able to; good luck...


Peace,
Clayton
