[Pkg-xfce-devel] Jumping in head first.....

[wphewitt at comcast.net (wphewitt)]

Someone please bear with me and my lack of knowledge....

I am looking at re-compiling xfdesktop - making some customization to 
xfdesktop.

In particular, (or for my first experiment...), I would like to remove 
"Create from Template" from the root menu..... I have found the code in 
xfdesktop source and commented it out.

So, now I am set to recompile, but last time I tried this I failed 
(compiling from source) - can someone give me some pointers on what 
tools and dependencies I need to compile this correctly and get it 
installed/build a working deb? Currently I am on xubuntu 9.04......

Hope this doesnt sound too stupid, but I am struggling with 
understanding how to do this....

TIA
