- i am running karmic with the latest updates

- i am trying to compile 2.7 from source via info here:  http://www.gimpusers.com/news/2009-10-14/compiling-gimp-27-git-ubuntu-904-910.html

- the instructions are super basic, and i had an earlier install just run perfectly with the said script.  now, gegl refuses to compile.  here is what i get when i type in make -j3 as per script:

This error can be avoided by disabling gegl docs
