Ahhaa.. now I know why my built from emacs source 21.1.95 wouldn't run
in console mode... maybe. I went to some length to get libungif4-dev
installed, and got a `yes' at that point in configure output.
All this is history now (about that build of 21.2.95)since I
reinstalled last night/this morning due to other problems that
have mounted up. I don't have anything really important on it yet.
If you look at the rest of this thread. The recent parts. It kind of
chronicles a series of problems with building from source, I mean the
apt-get -b source way. That continues even though I went back to
tasksel and selected all devel stuff hoping that was my problem. Just
now an `apt-get -b source vim' failed.
Its a little confusing since apt-get is supposed to be getting all
dependancy stuff. It looks like it is too, but then it fails.
