OK, so went ahead and installed libgmime-2.0-2-dev.
Upon ./config, I got a new error message, which suggests that the gmime issue was solved. In response to the new error message, I installed -dev packages pertaining to dbus.
At this point, ./config gives:
Code:
./configure: line 22621: syntax error near unexpected token `0.35.0'
./configure: line 22621: `IT_PROG_INTLTOOL(0.35.0)'
This I have no idea what to do about. I'm stumped. At this point, I therefore still have the aptitude version, and not the latest svn.
I would still like to install the latest, but don't know how to.
Thank you, stoffe, for this advice which let me advance some, and will surely come in handy more generally in the future...
