Given the likely trouble with downgrading, I've decided to push ahead with Mandrake 8. I'm trying to get abi to build, and after installing zlib and libpng, I get the following errors:
dummy.c:21: warning: `psiconv_dummy' defined but not used configure: warning: libwv will not have wmf to png support: see README make[5]: *** No rule to make target `/home/david/abiword/abi/src/Linux_2.4.4-6.2mdk_ppc_OBJ/obj/wv/piecetable.o ', needed by `/home/david/abiword/abi/src/Linux_2.4.4-6.2mdk_ppc_OBJ/obj/libAbi_libwv.a' . Stop. make[4]: *** [_LIBWV_] Error 2 make[3]: *** [build] Error 2 make[2]: *** [build] Error 2 make[1]: *** [build] Error 2 make: *** [compile] Error 2 Any ideas on how to fix this? David Chart
