I just installed the latest sh-utils and made sure they were in the
front of my path... Same problem.

I've narrowed it down, though.
Around line 5443 in my ./configure file is the line:
if test $BUILD_GNOME_DB2HTML3 = yes; then
It echoing $BUILD_GNOME_DB2HTML3 shows that it is empty. Grepping the
file shows that it never appears anywhere else in the file. Thus it's no
surprise that test is complaining I think...

Any thoughts?
