This warning is normal and not a problem.

I don't know if it is gbi that is wrong or your system: I installed the last 
Kubuntu from scratch, and everything compiles and installs as expected. So 
what is the difference between your system and a Kubuntu installed from 
scratch with all the development package needed to compile Gambas?

gbi3 creates the *.list and *.info files only for components written in C/C++. 
For components written in Gambas, these files are actually created by the 
compiler (gbc3). So it is not necessarily gbi's fault.

I will compare your compilation output with the one on my Kubuntu 8.10, and I 
will tell you...
