I noted gnome-session had been updated and started upgrading it but!
1. many hours later it is still running on my intel core duo @1.86 GHz

4. perl 5.8.8 has recomplied I dont know how many times.......many
5. on trying to fetch perl5 5.8.8 the last time I noticed DEBUG wrote
"perl5.8.8...blah....gz doesnt seem to exist in /opt/local/......./ perl58/perl58/perl58/perl58 etc etc etc perl58/perl58 (repeated total 9 times)

Is it somehow creating a new souce (sub) dir everytime around? or is this just an artifact of multiple dependecies?

considering how much time has elapsed, I dont want to stop it if this is "normal" but neither do I want to let it run if its going to fill 50 megs of disk available with more and more copies of perl.


I still dont understand what was going on with with item 5 but so what :)
gnome-session just finished compling !! TA_DAA!! (@ 3:19 am)

Id delete my mesg if I knew how. instead Ill just reply to it. :)

Thanks Randal et alia for all the good work on gnome. Hopefully I can help in the future...... :)

(and perhaps this mesg will be useful for someone else compling gnome- session for the first time)
