Hi Thomas, Even after removing the lines as shown in r378, configure is reporting error:
configure: error: Package requirements (gtk+-2.0 >= 2.8 pygtk-2.0 >= 2.8 pygobject-2.0 >= 2.10 gnome-python-2.0 >= 2.12 gnome-desktop-2.0 >= 2.14 pycairo >= 1.0 ) were not met: No package 'gnome-desktop-2.0' found After making changes in configure.ac I executed ./configure --prefix=/usr. Is this correct?
