Re: unable to make libunicode-0.4

[Phillip J Shelton <shelton11 dingoblue net au>]

Sorry for not supplying enough info the first time around.

Hope the  following helps a little.


I am running Red Hat 6.2

Here are some of the RPMs that I have installed.

[shelton frodo shelton]$ rpm -q glib glibc egcs
glib-1.2.6-3
glibc-2.1.3-21
egcs-1.1.2-30

These are the tarballs that I have either already installed or are going to
install.

gnumeric-0.57.tar.gz
gal-0.1.tar.gz
imlib-1.9.8.1.tar.gz
gdk-pixbuf-0.9.0.tar.gz
libglade-0.14.tar.gz
glade-0.5.9.tar.gz
glademm-0.5.9.tar.gz
libole2-0.1.6.tar.gz
glib-1.2.8.tar.gz
libunicode-0.4.gnome.tar.gz
libxml2-2.2.5.tar.gz
gnome-core-1.2.2.1.tar.gz
gnome-libs-1.2.5.tar.gz
gnome-print-0.24.tar.gz


here are the file from line 19 on that the compile is failing at.   The
first 18 lines are just the license.
