I had no problems building the latest vte from source. I built it for the XFCE Terminal, though. For gnome-terminal you would need to rebuild gnome-terminal from source as well, I think, which may start to get a little complex. It would probably be easy enough on OpenSolaris, as the rest of the prerequisites are likely to be present and up to date. -- -Peter Tribble http://www.petertribble.co.uk/ - http://ptribble.blogspot.com/
