gdm-2.14.1 won't compile
Last modified: 2006-04-14 19:51:42 UTC
Please describe the problem: When I try to compile gdm-2.14.1 it fails with the message `*** No rule to make target `gdmthemetester.in', needed by `gdmthemetester'. Stop.' gdm-2.14.0 compiles and runs fine. (gdm-2.14.0 was not installed when I tried to compile 2.14.1) Steps to reproduce: 1. Untar the source and cd into gdm-2.14.1 2. ./configure --prefix=/usr --sysconfdir=/etc --libexecdir=/usr/local/libexec --mandir=/usr/share/man --localstatedir=/var/lib 3. make Actual results: lib/libglib-2.0.so /usr/lib/libxml2.so -lz /usr/lib/libart_lgpl_2.so -lm /usr/lib/libXi.so /usr/lib/libXinerama.so /usr/lib/libXext.so /usr/lib/libX11.so /usr/lib/libXau.so /usr/lib/libXdmcp.so -ldl make[4]: *** No rule to make target `gdmthemetester.in', needed by `gdmthemetester'.
