Unable to build gnome-2.2.0

Trying to build gnome-terminal fails. After successfully running "./configure --prefix=/home/rodd/garnome" I get the following error during make: /usr/bin/ld: warning: libXft.so.2, needed by /home/rodd/garnome/lib/libvte.so, may conflict with libXft.so.1 /home/rodd/garnome/lib/libXft.so.2: undefined reference to `XRenderQuerySubpixelOrder' collect2: ld returned 1 exit status make[3]: *** [gnome-terminal] Error 1 make[3]: Leaving directory `/tmp/gnome-terminal-2.2.0/src' make[2]: *** [all-recursive] Error 1 make[2]: Leaving directory `/tmp/gnome-terminal-2.2.0/src' make[1]: *** [all-recursive] Error 1 make[1]: Leaving directory `/tmp/gnome-terminal-2.2.0' make: *** [all-recursive-am] Error 2
I promise you this is not a gnome-terminal issue, it is not happening to anyone else. You linked some part of the library stack to Xft1 and linked vte to Xft2, that won't work. You need to find what's linked to Xft1 and rebuild it without linking to Xft1. Nobody can debug it by guessing, you need to use "ldd" and other tools to debug the system.
