Well, seems no one compiled gs from source lately, anyway i've figured out where
the problems lied (or at least, i think), so i'm replaying to my post. The error
that stopped the compilation in "zdevcal.c" was
related to the include (time_.h), and a quick (ugly) hack was to force
explicitly the inclusion of time.h in time_.h (i'm not so experienced about
conditional including).
I was interested in the stp driver, and to compile it needs a minor change to
include the required files (don't remeber exactly the name, some like
gdevstp-quickmatrix, it only needs to state the correct path).
The packages (gs-5.10) is supposed to compile out of the box, if this is not a
problem with my actual configuration (too many dist-upgrade =), should i submit
a bug report?
