This is my fault; I removed the TODO file from the source package, but forgot to remove it from the Makefile. Still, most users that "build" Plucker on their own would probably use the snapshot to get a more recent package than what is included in 1.8. In that case you wouldn't run into this problem. > Each of those links is a dead link.

Well, when you run plucker-build with the -c argument it will just write the data to the cache directory; don't know *why* you want to do that, but if you look in ~/.plucker/cache I guess you will find some files in it... When you use -f it will, as you found out, create a Plucker document. > Version two: this one is mostly a rant because using the > install-plucker in the unix dir shouldn't have so many issues.

Nope, not when you *after* running the configure command decide to run the install-plucker script (that will run the configure script using the settings you select and since the script is deprecated it has not been updated to include any options for the GTK viewer). > So I add a "install-prc-files: : " section in > /home/faux/plucker-1.8/viewer-GTK+2-POSIX/Makefile just to get past > it.
