I'd post this to the Fnorb list, but don't seem to have been added yet..
I appologise if this offends anyone's sense of relevance.

In installing Fnorb on a Debian 2.1 linux system, I follow the
instructions very carefully. I'm actually not using debian's Python
package, but a self-installed/compile 1.5.2 Python, so I can fiddle with
the source without needing to learn about packages.

Fnorb seems to install fine, but when I try running fnidl on anything,
it seems to chew for a while (disk activity, slight increase on load avg
meter), but then waits an ridiculous amount of time (2-3 minutes), then
spits out the error message at the bottom of this page.

Am I doing something wrong? The command line I'm using is simple "fnidl
(idl file)", which works fine under windows.

Any help would be appreciated.. I really want to play with CORBA!! :)
