While looking at the gedit process problem that Ru and Jussi are
discussing, I decided to checkout 5866.

Unfortunately, when doing ./configure -C it has several errors:
checking for libintl headers... ./configure: line 17062: cd:
/home/Paul/Gambas: No such file or directory

Do we need to add the fact that there must be a Gambas directory already
created before the configure will work?

I usually do not checkout Gambas using SVN, so I follow the "How To Deal
With Subversion" instructions exactly. There is nothing about needing to
have that directory. Is this something that should be added to the docs?




I fixed the directory problem, but still have these:

1.
checking for libintl libraries... no
configure: WARNING: Unable to find file: libintl.so
configure: WARNING: This library may be located inside the system C library

According to the Ubuntu packages page (see address below), the only
libintl.so file is:
/usr/lib/preloadable_libintl.so  which is in this package: gettext

gettext and gettext-base are both installed.



AND

2.
checking for libiconv libraries... no
configure: WARNING: Unable to find file: libiconv.so

According to the Ubuntu packages page (see address below), the only
libiconv files are:
/usr/lib/libiconv_hook.so.1  and  /usr/lib/libiconv_hook.so.1.0.0
which are in this package: libiconv-hook1

and
/usr/lib/libiconv_hook.so    which is in this package: libiconv-hook-dev

They are not installed on my system.

This is what Synaptic says about them:
libiconv-hook1   extension of iconv for libapache-mod-encoding
libiconv-hook-dev   header files of libiconv-hook


AND

3.
configure: creating ./config.status
config.status: error: cannot find input file: `Makefile.in'
configure: error: ./configure failed for main
