 Okay.  I'll not touch it, then.

FYI, I noticed this morning that the build didn't complete.  It was
(again) a failure in xsltproc.  Amusingly there were two builds, and
both failed in the same place in the same way, so perhaps there is a bug
in our documentation that is tickling a bug in xsltproc on Windows?

I'll work on this later today.

FTR: This wasn't any error in our source code or documentation text. Instead, 
it was the classical win32 DLL hell: The xsltproc.exe we were using had a 
dependency on iconv.dll and zlib.dll. By chance before the version upgrade 
those DLLs were provided in the gnome packages in the more-or-less correct 
version. *After* the gnome version upgrade those DLLs as provided by gnome 
were newer versions than what xsltproc.exe wanted to have, so it crashed upon 
start-up. This could be found out by running depends.exe on xsltproc.exe and 
observing the errors at those DLLs. The error was resolved by installing the 
suitable iconv.dll and zlib.dll solely for xsltproc.exe in the directory of 
that binary, so that the exe picks up those DLLs first. Error resolved.

There is now a new win32 build avaiable.

Christian

Yeah, VMWare is broken with FireFox 3.6. My planned workaround for when I 
upgrade my desktop is to install 3.5 in /opt for use with VMWare.  Apparently 
VMWare considers it a FireFox bug, but FireFox considers it a VMWare bug.  
There is no known workaround except to us an older version.

I'll go look at the vm once I get home.

The nightly windows build is broken (after my gtk version update). 
Unfortunately our previously available connection for remote log-in doesn't 
work at the moment, because the VMhost browser plugin is known for not to work 
with certain firefox 3.6.x versions, which I happen to be using. Hence, I 
haven't been able to log into the build machine now and also for quite some 
time due to this vmhost plugin bug. Geert Janssens was able to log in by using 
a completely different browser (IIRC on a virtual machine running windows), 
but he's on holiday right now and can't work on this. I'm just saying I will 
try to log into the build server in order to track down the issue that's 
breaking the build, but this nasty vmware bug is hindering us from progress 
here. Maybe I'll find another machine which isn't behind a restrictive 
firewall (as my daytime computers are), but until then, the windows build 
probably won't miraculously start to work again. Sorry for that.

Christian

xsltproc crashed again...

I'm wondering if I should clean out all the dependencies to make a clean
nightly build tonight?
