Re: [Synaptic-devel] get configure and compile errors

[Richard Bos]

Michael,

the hint about atk-devel and pkg-config --list-all solved the problem.  
Especially the pkg-config --list-all tip was very usefull.

It would be nice if you can provide a gcc-3.3 tarball (0.37?), but the diff 
you attached seems sufficient too.

Thanks sofar :)
