I finally got Gastman to compile but I get a bunch of "failed assertions" when I run it and attempt to make a new extension. I have latest CVS on Mandrake 9.1. Last error is: (gastman:22534): Gdk-CRITICAL **: file ../../gdk/gdkdraw.c: line 311 (gdk_drawable_unref): assertion `GDK_IS_DRAWABLE (drawable)' failed Other errors are like this one. I apologize if this has been addressed previously but a quick search in the list turned up nothing. Any quick ideas? Jim Friedeck
