Disclaimer: I know nothing about the peculiarities of OpenSuSE. That being said, here's some detective work on Gentoo, where all this works of course fine thanks to the superior package manager. :-D > make[2]: Entering directory '/home/jow/News/pan/pan-0.142' > GEN pan.appdata.xml > /usr/bin/msgfmt: cannot locate ITS rules for pan.appdata.xml.in equery b /usr/bin/msgfmt * Searching for /usr/bin/msgfmt ... sys-devel/gettext-0.19.8.1 (/usr/bin/msgfmt) So ITS rules are used for localization support, and gettext tries to find "appdata" rules.

Hope this gets your further. Holger _______________________________________________ Pan-users mailing list Pan-users@nongnu.org https://lists.nongnu.org/mailman/listinfo/pan-users
