I'm afraid it doesn't, since AFAIK lots of the gnome stuff is
statically linked with stubs that don't play nice with cvs ORBit.
I do the following:
1) Install CVS ORBit in a different directory
(./autogen.sh --prefix=/some/dir)
2) Start gnome
3) Once gnome is started (and all the stuff is running nicely),
export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/some/dir/lib:$LD_LIBRARY_PATH
export PATH=/some/dir/bin:$PATH
4) hack. (support for unions currently)
Hopefully the ORBit in CVS (or ORBit2) will become the gnome
ORBit soon - then all will be right with the world again.
(either that, or we'll patch stable ORBit to support the features we
need to run orbitcpp without breaking gnome apps).
Cheers,
Phil
