Life is full of trade-offs. Statically linked programs are huge, and a
big waste for people who use the libraries.
The gnome libs are tortuous to get installed in the correct order, but
give you access to many more programs.
No pain no gain.
You succeded.
Congratulations.
Wishing you much fun for the New Year. Looking forward to seeing
Mohamed's Own GUI :)
