[gnome-db] gnome-db src compilation problem.

[Antonio Gennarini <antonio sunstone it>]

Hi.

I got the ligda to compile via src rpm deleting the interbase strings in the spec file as you told me. Thanks for that. 
Now I tried to compile the gnome-db-0.2.94 (being there no 0.2.95 src rpm) rpm and get some compile error. I'm no programmer so this stuff makes no sense to me. I seem to understand that the compilation goes bad because it can't find something that has to do with documentoation?
How do I solve the problem? 
Here's the terminating output of the compilation process:
