gint32 / guint32

[Andreas Cittlau <goofy neptun hib no>]

Dear Gnomers,                                                                   
                                                                                
I been compiling gnome from cvs for the past months, and must say that          
both gnome and the speed of development is amazing. Problems with the           
source from cvs has been minimal as soon as I upgraded/installed all            
required programs (automake etc).                                               
                                                                                
I have not been able to compile gnome-libs from monday last week until          
today however. This was the same day Elliot Lee announced the need for          
popt 1.2.1                                                                      
I downloaded and installed popt immediately followed by a cvs update.           
                                                                                
The error I get (a little piece of it included below) indicates that I          
dont have gint32 and guint32 defined(?).                                        
As I have checked out the source for glib, gtk+, gnome-libs and more            
from scratch several times after this error started to haunt me, I cannot       
see any other source of the problem, than the fact that something is            
either outdated or not installed on my system.                                  
                                                                                
I have read through Soren Harwards cvs-faq, and double checked that all         
programs and versions are installed/correct. Furthermore, I have gone           
through all include and lib directories and checked that nothing is             
installed several places on my system. make distclean, rm -R .deps/.libs        
has also been tested.                                                           
                                                                                
For the record, glib, gtk+, imlib, libIDL and ORBit all compile fine,           
error first comes to show when compiling gnome-libs                             
                                                                                
Any hawk eyed people out there that can spot (or guess) the origin of           
this error?
