GNOME-2.10.1: the short take [Off Topic]

[Joseph E. Sacco, Ph.D.]

Dean,

Since this is a garnome question,  I will gently point you towards the
garnome mailing list

        http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/garnome-list
        
That being said [no... I am not going to leave you hanging :-)],  it
appears that you are attempting to manually build some of the additional
external gst-plugins that were *not* detected by configure:

[From config.log on my system]:

            ...
        HAVE_RAW1394_FALSE='#'
        HAVE_RAW1394_TRUE=''
        HAVE_ROM1394='yes'
        HAVE_SHOUT='no'            <======
        HAVE_SPEEX='yes'
        HAVE_THEORA='yes'
        HAVE_X='yes'
        HAVE_XSHM='yes'
               ...

Take a careful look at the build documentation for gst-plugins.  In
particular, read:

	./desktop/gst-plugins/work/main.d/gst-plugins-0.8.8/REQUIREMENTS

and you will learn where to find the source for these gst-plugins should
you wish to include them. From my experience, some of these build
easily, others do not.  Our mileage may vary.

For now, edit 

	./desktop/gst-plugins/work/main.d/gst-plugins-0.8.8/ext/Makefile

to comment out any external gst-plugin that is causing problems. For
example,
        ...
        #SDL_DIR =
        SDL_DIR = sdl
        SHOUT_DIR =
        #SHOUT_DIR = shout            <========
        SHOUT2_DIR =
        #SHOUT2_DIR = shout2          <========
        #SIDPLAY_DIR = sidplay
        SIDDPLAY_DIR =
         ...
