Re: Gnome on Solaris 8 w/depot

["Ben Taylor" <sol7x86 hotmail com>]

hmm.  I don't use depot, and spend a good amount of time compiling,
testing, and packaging GNOME for Solaris8/X86.  I haven't had any
problems building gnome, other than the regular Solaris-isms that
I have to fix (I don't use LD_LIBRARY_PATH..., so I have to manually
add -R<libdir> to the packages which haven't accepted my patches
to correctly build automatically for Solaris).
