Great :-). In fact, adesklets should work without a single itch on every existing architecture linux supports out of the box. It is fairly portable C by now.

About gentoo: I could not send a bug report asking for the inclusion of ppc into the ebuild, since I do not have access to any ppc machine myself. I saw somebody just filed one - If it's you, thank you very much.

I'm having problems with this. I'm on Gentoo/PPC, but since emerge wasn't working, I thought I'd try from source...

# make
[...]
make[2]: Leaving directory `/usr/local/src/adesklets-0.4.5/scripting'
Making install in python
make[2]: Entering directory `/usr/local/src/adesklets-0.4.5/scripting/python'
/usr/bin/python setup.py hack_405969000 protoize
This script should never be invoked directly:
this is part of the autoconf/automake process.
make[2]: *** [adesklets/commands.py] Error 1
make[2]: Leaving directory `/usr/local/src/adesklets-0.4.5/scripting/python'
make[1]: *** Error 1
make[1]: Leaving directory `/usr/local/src/adesklets-0.4.5/scripting'
make: *** Error 1


Any ideas?

Yes, but I do not know how you managed to get this, though: it should only happens when developping the interpreter, when you modify some source c files in src/...
You do not experience system clock problems, by any chance, or using ReiserFS ?

To get through this, just redo the sequence ./configure --prefix=/usr and then make again, a couple of times until you stop receiving this error (should take one of two tries)....

I guess I could relax this boundary control anyway. Regards,

That seemed to work. Thanks! (Very responsive, too!)
