Dear Carl,

    You are using a more recent version of lessc then I am so it is
probably just a versioning error. Ubuntu Precise Pangolin's repositories
are still at lessc-1.2.1. So apparently I need to manually install a more
recent version of the compiler. Here is a description of the error if
anyone else has this problem:

    I have not edited anything, when attempting to compile the vanilla
blue_colors.ini from the repo I receive an error like so:

$sudo lessc blue_colors.ini
ParseError: Syntax Error on line 1 in
/srv/galaxy-dist/static/style/blue_colors.ini:1:9
1 base_text=#303030
2 base_bg_top=#FFFFFF

However the only reason I used that command is because the makefile gives a
different error:

$ sudo make OUT=blue
make[1]: Entering directory `/srv/galaxy-dist/static/style/blue'
lessc -x ../base.less base.css
TypeError: Cannot call method 'charAt' of undefined
    at getLocation (/usr/lib/nodejs/less/parser.js:204:34)
    at new LessError (/usr/lib/nodejs/less/parser.js:213:19)
    at Object.toCSS (/usr/lib/nodejs/less/parser.js:379:31)

    at /usr/lib/nodejs/less/parser.js:428:40
    at /usr/lib/nodejs/less/parser.js:94:48
    at /usr/lib/nodejs/less/index.js:113:15
make[1]: *** [base.css] Error 2
make[1]: Leaving directory `/srv/galaxy-dist/static/style/blue'
make: *** [all] Error 2

Which is apparently a bug in the version of lessc I have.
