Description
I'm trying to learn about building window apps using Gtk. I really love Workbench and the examples it contains, but some time ago, for some reason I can no longer run projects in Workbench.
Everytime I just get an error:
error: unable to open `/dev/null' for writing
Compilation failed: 1 error(s), 0 warning(s)
Does anyone have any suggestions on how to fix this please?
