I just don't understand what's going on there. What is your default shell? It shouldn't matter, since cvs.sh should be run with `sh' no matter what, but it's still worth checking. Also, what's your `locale' setting? Again, it shouldn't matter, but you never know. > I am running SuSE 9.3 This distro seems to be popping up rather a lot in bug reports with bizarre behaviour :S > The strange thing is, building the the cvs snapshots from scribus.org.uk > is a breeze, but trying to build anything directly updated from cvs > always results in the above message, both for the 1.2 series and the > 1.3.1 version. That's really odd. I don't recall if the snapshots have Makefile.cvs . If so, do you run it? -- Craig Ringer
