Hi, all.
As Ubuntu linux gets upgraded to 7.10, configuring vim with gui does
not work.
The problem is that if you specify gui option like "--enable-
gui=gtk2", the configure script would go like "NO GUI found". I tried
to find out if the configure script went wrong. I tried the same thing
on Redhat linux, SunOs 5.8, Aix 5.3, and HP-UX 11.23. No problemo. It
perfectly went well.
I decided to debug the script on my PC (ubuntu 7.10, 8.04).
As trying to get to the bottom of the problem, the first thing I did
was to re-generate configure script with some debugging messages. And
there you go! (Luckily) I was able to find that the newly generated
configure script worked without even tracing into it.
Of course, I just gave up on figuring out what was the problem.
But, the point is :
1. If you use ubuntu ( >= 7.10), and you want to build your own gvim
2. re-generate configure script with your automake tools like :
$ cd vim/src/auto
$ autoconf ../configure.in > configure
3. configure, make, make install
4. Enjoy your vim :-)
Happy vimming, everyone!
