If there has been an API change, the release tarball will be broken, but most of the contents of the tarball are copied from the man gvfs source because these components are not exported yet. However, it is very likely the core synce-gvfs code is still compatible. 1) get synce-gvfs from svn 2) get gvfs source, and unpack it 3) in synce-gvfs/make-dist, edit make-dist.sh so gvfs_src_dir points to the root of the gvfs source tree, and run ./make-dist.sh 4) try and build synce-gvfs normally Mark
