O.T.: Using garnome to build gnome

[Chuck Hallenbeck]

There are more appropriate lists to ask this question, I know, but if 
someone has the answer at his/her fingertips, I would appreciate a hint.

I have retrieved the latest garnome and configured it, then began:

make paranoia_install

in the desktop directory. The initial set of downloads went fine, the 
destination directories were created and partially populated, but then 
the first compile was attempted, and the configuration step failed when 
it said it needed X, but it could not be found or was not configured 
correctly. The "which X" command tells me it is in /usr/bin, and I have 
already been successfully using X as it is currently configured.

I am running a Debian unstable system and have just uninstalled the 
Debian gnome related packages in order to obtain gnome 2.16.1 through 
garnome, instead of the 2.14 that Debian currently packages.

But it can't find X, or it has a problem with X. Anybody know how to get 
around this one? 

Thanks,

Chuck
