Gnome-2.16.0 Build Order

[Jon <jgrosshart gmail com>]

Hello. First, thanks for the recent Gnome release. I'm very excited 
about it but I noticed that there isn't a reference build order posted 
on the gnome site like there was for 2.14 and previous versions... Is 
this intentional or is it still to come?

I use Slackware and DIY and am displeased with the various 
offerings/methods available (for Slackware), so I've been building it 
from source since 2.8.... I've already started the build but I keep 
noticing 2.14 packages and it's making me a little leary..

I gathered there are new packages from the start page and the hint of 
gnomeprint being depreciated, or at least on it's way out? I've already 
jumped the gun and removed my old Gnome and am using Fluxbox right now 
while I'm building. I'd rather not have to muddle through this blind 
folded but unless I can find some sort of build order, that's what I'll 
have to do I suppose. I've already learned a few things, like dbus now 
being required, but I really don't want to invest a couple weeks of 
trial and error to get a "proper" gnome-2.16.... The build time is bad 
enough (with documentation) as it is... :-)

There are MANY, MANY people who build it from source and would find a 
build order extremely useful.

Any hints, suggestions or a proper build order for 2.16 would be most 
appreciated... Nothing that takes alot of time. Just the same thing that 
is here:

Thank you very much for your time,

Jon
