i've been try ying to install enlightenment (from source) for about a month or so on and off. I'm good as far as the dependancies are concerned. I do the /configure and it seems good, i get no "bad" messages.. but when i do the make and the make install
i get this weird error:

error [all recursive] error 1

i've seen it before in other make/makeinstalls and
and it won't let me do anything.. i tried slaping the exec enlightenment/bin (all that jazz) command in my ./.xinitrc file (crossing my fingers of course ;-) ) and i startx and it crashes.. sooooo.. i'm kinda stuck.

any thoughts? TIA

error [all recursive] error 1

This is not the actual error only a message telling you that the program is in a loop of sorts and cannot proceed due to something that erred before this point.

What version of gcc are you using?
What distro are you running?
Have you tried a different source download (mirror)?
