I have successfully installed Mozilla 1.6 via rpm and am trying to upgrade to Galeon 1.3.12 to go with it. Since I couldn't find rpms for the Galeon I decided to make it from source. I finally got a successful make after tracking down some missing packages and installing them. However, when I tried to install Galeon using "checkinstall" I got the following error messages: ... done if test "figures"; then \ /bin/sh ../../mkinstalldirs /usr/local/share/gnome/help/galeon/C/figures; \ for file in ./figures/*.png; do \ basefile=`echo $file | sed -e 's,^.*/,,'`; \ /usr/bin/install -c -m 644 $file /usr/local/share/gnome/help/galeon/C/figures/$basefile; \ done \ fi mkdir -p -- /usr/local/share/gnome/help/galeon/C/figures make install-data-hook make[4]: Entering directory `/home/ggriffin/installed/galeon-1.3.12/doc/C' /bin/sh ../../mkinstalldirs /usr/local/share/omf/galeon mkdir -p -- /usr/local/share/omf/galeon for file in galeon-C.omf; do \ /usr/bin/install -c -m 644 $file.out /usr/local/share/omf/galeon/$file; \ done /usr/bin/install: cannot stat `galeon-C.omf.out': No such file or directory make[4]: *** [install-data-hook-omf] Error 1 make[4]: Leaving directory `/home/ggriffin/installed/galeon-1.3.12/doc/C' make[3]: *** [install-data-am] Error 2 make[3]: Leaving directory `/home/ggriffin/installed/galeon-1.3.12/doc/C' make[2]: *** [install-am] Error 2 make[2]: Leaving directory `/home/ggriffin/installed/galeon-1.3.12/doc/C' make[1]: *** [install-recursive] Error 1 make[1]: Leaving directory `/home/ggriffin/installed/galeon-1.3.12/doc' make: *** [install-recursive] Error 1 **** Installation failed. Aborting package creation. Cleaning up...OK Bye. I've checked and the file galeon-C.omf exists in ~/installed/galeon-1.3.12/doc/C and the directory /usr/local/share/omf/galeon also exists. I don't know enough to know where to look next for the source of the problem, any suggestions will be welcomed. Thanks, George -- George H.

Did you run 'make' by itself first? 'checkinstall' alone isn't enough. Theo -- Theo v. Werkhoven Registered Linux user# 99872 http://counter.li.org ICBM 52 13 27N , 4 29 45E. SUSE 8.2 Kernel k_athlon-2.4.20 See headers for PGP/GPG info.

I ran ./configure (without any errors showing), and then make by itself, which completed without any errors (after installing a couple of missing packages not picked up by ./configure). Since there were no errors after "make" I was not expecting any problems with checkinstall. I also tried "make install" with the same results as with checkinstall.
