Folks,
I wanted to try gnumeric on my alpha, and was a little unhappy that the
gnome-libs Makefile had
NOT_FOR_PLATFORM= *-*-alpha # problems with gtk
in it - so I just commented it out :-) I fixed all the build warnings
(90% of which were fixed with a "#include <string.h>") and I can do
basic stuff with gnumeric and it hasn't dumped a core on me yet.
Does anyone know what the "problems with gtk" were? Todd Vierling added
the line - I haven't cc'd or asked him directly because he doesn't seem
to be active on the NetBSD front at the moment.
Simon.
