Hi all again,

while compiling all, i received the following message:

How do I solve this ?

I upgraded to automake1.7 and this is the result

cd /home/dreamuser/dreamsrc/apps/dvb/dvbsnoop && ./autogen.sh && CC=powerpc-tuxbox-linux-gnu-gcc CXX=powerpc-tu
xbox-linux-gnu-g++ CFLAGS="-Wall -O3 -mcpu=823 -msoft-float -mmultiple -mstring -g -ggdb -pipe" CXXFLAGS="-Wall -O3 -m

Which is, more or less, the same as above

Please help

I am stuck at the same point.
Did you ever fix this?

It was the same for me. I installed gettext and it works.

hope this helps, look if you have gettext or not
