Actually, I'm the only user of this particular machine so installing in $HOME/local/ is not a problem. (Also, the main incentive for doing this rebuild is that when I "upgraded" to debian, and thus downgraded shotwell, I found that shotwell could no longer read my photo database. As I had a *large* number of tags and so forth, I would prefer to recover them using a newer version of shotwell than retag them. Any new user on my machine can happily use the system version of shotwell without knowing what they are missing!) > After your build succeed you can "install" system wide (and may be > share binaries :)). By "share binaries" do you mean so that others using Debian who want the binaries can simple install them from my build? If so, sure! *When* I get a successful build, then I'll ask for instructions on how best to do that (but I'll walk before I run ...).
