Re: fmtutil: config file `fmtutil.cnf' not found.
Hi, The precise problem also occurs on Sun Solaris 9 for Intel (not Sparc). I have not even had time to track it down in any detail (I just reboot to Linux), but would really like to see a solution. I'll try looking at it tonight, if no one else has any great ideas. I'm using gcc rather than sun compilers, by the way, if that's relevant.

Re: fmtutil: config file `fmtutil.cnf' not found.
LUkas, Try having a look at a previous problem I posted---it looks the same to me. Apparently, your system is not detected as UNIX at some points. Thomas Esser gave me a solution. The thread subject was kpathsea and BeOS. (Sorry, but do not have access to the message text now, so I can not give you the exact solution). Regards, Alberto Molina
Re: fmtutil: config file `fmtutil.cnf' not found.
Hi again, Many thanks to Alberto Molina for directing me toward the solution for the problem. The issue had come up before with BeOS, and Thomas Esser's suggested solution can be found at: http://www.mail-archive.com/[EMAIL PROTECTED]/msg01805.html I followed this and added the following to my cnf.c: #elif defined (_sparc_) #define unix This solved the problem and everything worked nicely thereafter. For those who are interested, I first tried Olaf Weber's suggestion which can be found at: http://www.mail-archive.com/[EMAIL PROTECTED]/msg01809.html Perhaps I made a mistake when changing cnf.c, but while ftmutil.cnf was found just fine after that change, the compilation ended with lots of errors. If anyone is interested I can email them a partial log of the errors created.
