Okay, so now I've successfully compiled rep-gtk from svn, with the
following configure options:

,----
| aclocal; autoconf || exit
| CFLAGS="$SLKCFLAGS" \
|   ./configure \
|   --prefix=/usr \
|   --without-gnome \
|   --with-libglade=/usr/lib/libglade-2.0.so \
|   --sysconfdir=/etc \
|   --localstatedir=/var \
|   --with-perl=/usr/bin/perl \
|   --build=$ARCH-slackware-linux \
|   --host=$ARCH-slackware-linux 
`----

./configure'ing sawfish 1.3.3 with

,----
| ./configure --prefix=/usr --without-gnome --with-libglade=/usr/lib/libglade-2.0.so
`----

I get this error during running configure:

,----
| checking for rep-gtk libglade wrapper... no
| configure: WARNING: Can't load rep's libglade wrapper, not building themer
`----

Then when I use the same make invocation:

,----
| make "rep_LIBTOOL = /usr/libexec/rep/i486-slackware-linux-gnu/libtool --tag=CC" || exit
`----

I get a long way, but it dies with the following error:

,----
| ...
| /usr/bin/msgfmt  -o zh_TW.mo zh_TW.po
| ./make-pot
| ./make-pot: line 42: libglade-xgettext: command not found
| make[1]: Leaving directory `/home/joel/tmp/sawfish-1.3.3/po'
`----

Did I use the wrong value for "--with-libglade?"

Thanks for any help,
Joel
