awn 0.2.4 error in `make` using --with-desktop=xfce4

[Alvinistic]

I am building awn release version 0.2.4 for Xfce desktop. Hence, I use
./configure --prefix=/usr --with-desktop=xfce4

Configure did not have any problem. But gave me this error: Can't open ./egg-enum-types.h.in: No such file or directory. Reproducible in Ubuntu gutsy and Arch Linux.

The details are as follows:

It's late here, but offhand, I'd say that the problem is that libawn/egg/egg-enum-types.h.in (and probably libawn/egg/egg-enum-types.c.in) wasn't added to the tarball. Which is mostly my fault. I'll look into it tomorrow.

In the meantime, please use the web interface to download those two files:

http://bazaar.launchpad.net/~awn-core/awn/0.2.4/files

(I'd link to the actual files, but the URLs are disgustingly long)

Thanks for filing the bug report.

Hi Mark,

I did as you have told me. The compilation runs fine and I am able to install and run it. But it generates this bug: https://bugs.launchpad.net/awn/+bug/194018

I am just wondering if they are related.
Thanks.

Fix released as part of 0.2.6. Thanks.
