It appears to be a dependency problem. The Makefile wasn't running make-version.pl before it descended into the gtk directory, which made gtk/main.c complain. I've checked in a change to force make-version.pl to be run before any "make" or "make check" build.

Hi Gerald,

Does the patch to make-version.pl sometimes prevent the generation of the
cvsversion.h file when building an official release? If so, you need to
amend the make-version.pl script so the cvsversion.h file exists but it
shouldn't contain a definition for the CVS version string.

Regards,

Olivier

|That's fine. I was planning on doing the release in about 9 or 10 |hours, so you have plenty of time.
