Have you tried building it from the .tar.gz file? (That kind of problems caused me to quit using RPMs allthogether, and rather install from source, everything is just a ./configure && make && make install away...) regards Morten

I know, but I like know wich paremeter use with configure. I don't like do ./configure without any flags specified ( I had a weekend of headache because when I compiled the GCC 3.0 the multithread option wasn't a default set and you can imagine .... ).

Use www.rpmfind.net to find the source RPM for the updated gettext RPM and rebuild it first, then the main rebuild will go smoother. -- Lamar Owen WGCR Internet Radio 1 Peter 4:11

Doesn't exist the rpm for Redhat 7.1 for a version >= 0.10.36. Ciao Gaetano -- #exclude <windows> #include <CSRSS> printf("\t\t\b\b\b\b\b\b");. printf("\t\t\b\b\b\b\b\b");
