Thanks a lot. It turns out I had some wrong preconception about glib. It doesn't depend on more packages, and has bee easy to built. >> I'm targeting a very old Red Hat (7.2), and would downright prefer a >> very minimal mono package, thus I include most items in the >> enable_minimal configure option. I didn't use eglib as it's not obvious what should go there. FWIW, mono compiles quite nicely with gcc 2.96, except for a few C twists. However, make check freezes when it tries to verify ByteFX.Data.dll. I'll seek your help again as soon as I can figure out what's happening. Thanks again for your help Ale _______________________________________________ Mono-list maillist - [email protected] http://lists.ximian.com/mailman/listinfo/mono-list
