CVS GNOME

Hi

I just grabbed the basic stuff needed from CVS for compiling GNOME. My
question is:

Since I already have GNOME installed from rpm, is there an easy way to
get the two to live happily on my system together?

I doubt there is, so I removed the rpms before installing the CVS
code. Bizarely, the CVS code dumped itself in /usr/local/* by default
whereas the older rpm files had always been in /usr/*. Is this just
the preference of the person who built the RPMs?

The panel updates are looking very nice indeed (although they were a
little bland without pixmap support - the imlib code I grabbed didn't
really work at all ;)

I also had some issues with the "make install" for some of the
componants not copying include files from the source dir to a system
include dir. I dont have any records of which ones didn't work as I
had to put the rpms back on to do some work ;)

Keep up the good work :)
