I think that no is part of the gettext package, which enables internationalization support. Installing that package should fix the problem. Alternatively, if you are not interested in having multiple-language support, you could run configure with --disable-nls. > and "... -lpanel ... can't find library". > anyone knows where i can find these to files? The program you are compiling needed a library called libpanel.so. You either (1) have that library, but the linker just couldn't find it, or (2) you don't have it at all. If your problem is (1), then you can perhaps just run "ldconfig" (as root), and recompile. If you compiled gnome yourself, then you might need to add the path to the gnome libraries to /etc/ld.so.conf, before you run ldconfig. The default is /usr/local/lib, which is probably already in ld.so.conf. If you compiled gnome into a different directory, you may need to add the /lib subdir of that directory to ld.so.conf, and rerun ldconfig. (If you don't know where your libraries are being installed, find / -name 'libpanel.*' -print will look in every nook & cranny on your system trying to find the file.) If you installed gnome from the debian staging area, then this shouldn't be necessary, and you're probably in case (2). If running ldconfig doesn't work, you are probably in case (2). I'm not sure which gnome package contains that library, probably gnome-core. You'd need to install that package. HTH, Kirk
