Re: [Bug-gcal] Error regarding gnulib fseeko.c when building latest version

[Doron Behar]

I know I posted this a long time ago but I've finally have realized how
this can be fixed - Use `gnulib-tool` to regenerate the files in the
directory where fseeko.c and the rest of the files where found. A
comment in the Makefile found in that same directory specifies what
command needs to be run to create this directory.
