[webkit-help] Problems building on Ubuntu

[Stanislas]

Thanks

it seem the good point,
i was with a alias of gcc -> gcc-3.4
while gcc-4.3 was installed
i changed the alias to target on gcc-4.3
this allow to go a little more far, but i got the same error after,
with another file...

 after i altered the line of WebCore/dom/make_name.pl:

my $preprocessor = "/usr/bin/gcc -E -P -x c++";
to
my $preprocessor = "/usr/bin/gcc -E -P -x c++";

and in WebCore/bindings/scripts/IDLParser.pm
i changed too a similar line.

now the building go much more far. but i got new troubles in linking
with libsoup...
 this is another problems that i am going to explore

thanks a lot
