Bad Chris following up to own post. But I've missed summat out :)

And Lo! The Great Prophet "Chris J" uttered these words of wisdom:

1 + 1i. Make dependancies[1]

This is nesscessary to build the dependanacies and sort out any symlinks 
that should exist for a build to succeed. To do this bit, all you need to 
do is:

	make dep

followed by:

	make clean

And then you're ready to rock.


Again if any SuSE'ers can add anything to make the process shorter or 
whatever, it may be helpful to James :)

Chris... :)

[1] 1 + 1i? Well I wanted an integer as 1.5 just didn't cut it for a step. 
So imaginary numbers were the way to go :) I'll get me coat now ... where's 
the way out?
