    <para><parameter>--libexecdir=$GNOME_PREFIX/lib/gnome-settings-daemon-3.0</parameter>:
    This parameter causes the libexec files to be installed in the preferred
    location of <filename
    class="directory">$GNOME_PREFIX/lib/gnome-settings-daemon-3.0</filename>
    instead of <filename
    class="directory">$GNOME_PREFIX/libexec</filename>.</para>

    <para><parameter>--with-pnpids=/usr/share/libgnome-desktop-3.0/pnp.ids</parameter>:
    The <command>configure</command> script looks for
    <filename>/usr/share/hwdata/pnp.ids</filename> and thus fails to find this required
    file.</para>

    <para><option>--enable-static=no</option>: This switch prevents the static
    libraries being installed.</para>
