Where is gnome-autogen.sh?

[Jacob Schmude]

Hi
You must get gnome common and compile it, with the prefix of /usr. That 
will give you
gnome-autogen.sh in your /usr/bin directory where slack 9 puts its gnome 
binaries.
If you're not using slackware 9 you'll have to find out where your gnome 
prefix is. Every gnome library must be compiled with the correct gnome 
prefix. Anyway, you need to also get intltool from the gnome site and 
compile it as well.
However, I've not gotten gnome-speech or gnome-mag to compile at all. 
Running the autogen.sh script on them gives me the following errors in the 
automake Makefile.am files:
LDFLAGS is a user variable, you should not change it, use AM_LDFLAGS instead
When I change the variable to AM_LDFLAGS, the resulting created Makefiles 
are empty. I'm running slack 9 now. I'll be trying rh9 here soon, maybe 
they'll compile on there. if they do then they either have rh-specific 
stuff in them, or slackware's automake is nonstandard. Have any other 
slackware or debian users gotten these to compile? I'd be interested to 
know if anyone on a distro other than rh has gnome-speech and gnome-mag 
compiled. Not sure if gnopernicus will compile or not, since without 
gnome-speech, I'll never find out.
