Haven't tried to build:
Any application not listed here
Overall, not bad. Many of the referenced bug reports are paper cuts. None by itself breaks
Trinity but all combined creates an uncomfortable feeling. :)
If somebody explains how to resolve the broken sym link bug reports, which breaks the HTML
help files for non English languages, I am willing to work on resolving them.
Several of the other build related bugs are automake or cmake issues. I suspect most if
not all can be resolved with nominal effort by experts.
I'll work with anybody who tackles any of the listed bug reports. I will patch, build,
and test as fast as my dual core will allow me. :)
