[Gaim-devel] Configure error

[Jacob V. <jv...@do...>]

Hi,

Recently I have done some system changes (mainly in perl, mysql, apache,
and php) but now when I configure gaim from cvs I get an error:

checking for sys/wait.h... (cached) yes
checking termios.h usability... yes
checking termios.h presence... yes
checking for termios.h... yes
checking for struct tm.tm_zone... yes
checking for timezone external... yes
checking for altzone external... no
checking for daylight external... yes
configure: error: conditional "HAVE_ORBIT" was never defined.
Usually this means the macro was only invoked conditionally.

thats just a snip obviously,  does anyone have any idea what is coursing
it?

Thanks

Jacob Visser

What versions of automake and autoconf are you using? Are you trying 
to compile against gtk 1.2.x or gtk 2.x? What version of gnome do you
have installed?

Perl has nothing to do with that error. That's Orbit, which is a CORBA
ORB.

Please send me your config.log.

How are you executing ./autogen.sh? And how recent is your CVS?

For some reason, the HAVE_ORBIT conditional is being checked, but
never set. There isn't a single reference to it in my trees. Can you
send me your configure script? (Please e-mail it to me personally so
it doesn't flood the list, as it will be quite big).
