I'd like to get the theme in Solaris for Gnome called Nimbus. Packages for Ubuntu are here.
http://gnome-look.org/content/show.php/Nimbus+%28Ubuntu+and+Debian%29?content=54755
However there are no packages for 64 bit there, and the package there is out of date. Here is the source code for the newest one.
http://zap.tartarus.org/~ds/debian/dists/sid/main/source/nimbus_0.0.6.orig.tar.gz
I need help compiling it in 64 bit Ubuntu. Trying to compile it keeps giving me errors about intltool not being found and that I should install it. I have intltool installed.

chris@ubuntu:~/Desktop$ tar -xzf nimbus_0.0.6.orig.tar.gz

Yes, it's installed, but, it's not finding it for some reason or another, try copying the intltool files it's looking for to the directory containing configure because it seems to be looking for it there (for whatever reason). Maybe that will let it work.
