Hi,

> OK. :)  Why, reboot?

Yes - indeed. I did the build in a icewm session after
stopping xdm and killing the usual leftover bonobo
process. Not a single gnome component was running.

All the pkg-config databases of 26 had been removed,
any 26 related environment setting too, I removed all
the dotfiles of my test account, and the gnome26
folder was renamed to .gnome26.

Okay, nevertheless there is no preferences dialog at
all. I manually invoked gnome-theme-manager from the
command line. Numberless error messages appeared at
the xterm.  gnome-theme-manager didn't find a single
icon, no matter they all are installed.

yes they did. I did not invoked make paranopid-install
with the -i option!

I solved the evolution problem by manually removing
the gnome-pilot dependency in the Makefile, and I
disabled the build of totem, because I have my own
libxine installation, the totem build simply can't
find, whereas pkg_config finds them.

I am not sure. gnome-themes was definitely not build.
I navigated into that folder invoking make manually
and it works out-of-the box.

Furthermore I believe that the boostrap build must be
automatised.
