Hmm, I'm not sure if I understand you. Is this what you did?

$ cd garnome-2.18.0/
$ cd desktop/
$ make clean

Also, what do you mean exactly by that description? How does it not
build properly? What about the linking?

FWIW, if the above really is, what you did, then it will result in the
entire desktop/ directory being cleaned and re-set to the state exactly
like it has been when extracting the GARNOME tarball.

However, this is not a good idea, if you want to build additional
applications after that. GARNOME is a build environment, and the
dependencies are provided by this environment. When building any
application from GARNOME, it will make sure that all dependencies are
built as well -- which means the "build root" directory, the extracted
GARNOME tarball. It does not check if the dependencies are installed
somewhere in the currently set $PATH.

If you are low on disk space, and your goal was to not keep all the
extracted source directories around, you actually want to have a look at
the BUILD_CLEAN switch in gar.conf.mk. Running 'make clean' is not the
solution.

First three commands correct .
The reason for the make clean , was to attempt to rebuild the complete repository against corrected libraries , opennss* and kerberos , some of which did not have the correct dependencies some miss-configured , other faults were due to a lack of Dbus ( I am running a BlueWhite64 linux 11) (Dbus faults) which I could not find in my log files during python and glib construction , are those visible anywhere ? (I was building in a vi terminal , with 'make install' in 'desktop' )have not got round to correcting yet (Dbus). I can tell it's a "build environment" , how do I reset the build environment to square one , as if I had just downloaded the tarball ?
Is there some simpler arrangement to attain this end ?
If my questions are to prosaic please feel free to say so and I 'll
just listen to other peoples problems .
