Are you still getting this error even after you installed the docbook
stuff?

Try cd'ing into garnome-0.27.1/gnome/libxml2 and running: make clean &&
make install.

Can you post the KRBS error that you're getting? Did the error state
that it couldn't find krb5?

I think that XFree86-font-utils might be called something else in RHEL
2.1. It may be packaged as part of XFree86-tools? The XFree86-font-utils
from Fedora Core won't work for you and might actually causes problems
since the XFree86 in RH9/FC1 is ver. 4.3 and the one in RHEL 2.1 is ver.
4.1 and I don't think that they are compatible. ???

It should work on RHEL 2.1 just fine.
