Hi,

i've worked a bit on deskutils/narval today.

I achieved to finish the "make install", but was not able to make it work properly by now. In fact, I fixed the problem mentionned in http://pointyhat.freebsd.org/errorlogs/i386-errorlogs/e.4.2005052016/narval-1.2.a.1_1.log, but there is a conflict between gtk and gtk2 that need a clean fix.
I'm still working on it, and hope to have a clean fix soon. I have also contacted the authors, and they told me they would correct it soon.
However, the port does not work, but the problem is not only with freebsd (http://lists.logilab.org/pipermail/ai-projects/2003-January/000842.html) and the fix proposed there doesn't seem to work on my system. I think the version is too old (2002) to be installed properly (obviously, some libs don't exist anymore).
The new version is 2.0.2, I propose myself for porting/maintaining the new version. 
I will need some time to do it, as it is my first time having a deep look at Makefiles.

Thanks
