Installing Problems

[Francis Kwok]

Hi Pavel.
I downloading glib 1.2.10 and made it past the config.  I get stuck now
during the make.  I"m running on a sparc-sun-solaris2.6 box.

Making all in po
file=./`echo pt_BR | sed 's,.*/,,'`.gmo \
  && rm -f $file && /atm/atmtools/local/bin/msgfmt --statistics -o $file
pt_BR.po
/atm/atmtools/local/bin/msgfmt: unrecognized option `--statistics'
Try `/atm/atmtools/local/bin/msgfmt --help' for more information
*** Error code 1
make: Fatal error: Command failed for target `pt_BR.gmo'
Current working directory /stage/exodus/fkwok/mc/mc-4.5.54/po
*** Error code 1
make: Fatal error: Command failed for target `all-recursive'
Current working directory /stage/exodus/fkwok/mc/mc-4.5.54
*** Error code 1
make: Fatal error: Command failed for target `all'
