    Any idea what is wrong here ? I'd appreciate any help.

    Looks like you have the synfig packages installed and synfig is using those instead of the SVN ones.

    Hi. I am trying to compile synfig on Mandriva 2008. I've got an include error due to sigc++/compatible.h is missing. Is there any way to use ‘sigc’ namespace instead ‘SigC’ in the sources?

  4. pabs* Says:

    dinosaur: come see us on IRC. synfig doesn't use compatible.h so I don't see where that is coming from.
