David,

Ummm...unless I see it wrong, glib isn't one of Cygwin's available pre-built packages (http://www.cygwin.com/packages/), which means I'd have to download it, compile it from source, etc. This will have to wait 'til tomorrow (Wed) at the earliest, assuming I can find enough time. And that's assuming I can GET glib2 to compile under Cygwin.

...uh oh, not sure if this is good or bad. Just Google'd and found this:

http://web.sfc.keio.ac.jp/~s01397ms/cygwin/

Looks like patches exist to get glib2 to compile under Cygwin. Wasn't counting on this level of joy. :-) When it comes to patches, I'm still not terribly comfortable. Last time I did major coding, we worked with straight text files. No CVS, no diff, no patches in the manner in which it just seems assumed today that everyone knows. I'm afraid I would fall under "low-tech" in this regard. :-/

If you don't mind walking me through it just a tad, I'll give it a whack.

By the way, does this mean that MU-Conference depends on glib2 now? That's basically new as of v0.6, isn't it?

Oh, and if you don't receive my email--sent around 1:PM EST to <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>--please let me know so I can get that to you somehow.

Hi Frank,

Yes, i'm peregrine. That email address should work but i've not heard anything yet. Could you try one thing for me - if glib2 will compile under cygwin, can you try the cvs version of mu-conference. I know of some instability issues in the v0.5.x series, and this should have fixed them. I'm just unable to get cygwin running at the moment due to the download size.
