The configure script cheks the directory /usr/share/i18n/charmaps which usually should be found on GNU/Linux system. If you don't have that directory, you must get the files from the source of glibc, and inform the configure script of the directory by the argument "--with-charmaps=DIR". If you have "wget", the script "./get-glibc.sh" is a convenient tool to download the source of glibc (2.3) and extract files in a directory where the configure script finds automatically, thus no need of "--with-charmaps=DIR" argument. Please note that /usr/share/i18n/charmaps may contain incomplete GB18030.gz (e.g. /xfe/xa0.. /xfe/xfe are not mapped). In that case, you need the newer glibc source (glibc-2.3) by using "./get-glibc.sh". (1) Installation from CVS working directory. Just after you checked out or updated this package, run the script "./bootstrap.sh", then follows (2). (2) Installation from a tar ball. % ./configure % make % make install ---------------------------------------------------------------------- ## Files and directories ## mdb.dir -- defining database files FLT/ -- directory containing font layout table (*.flt) LANGDATA/ -- directory containing language names data (*.lnm) MIM/ -- directory containing input methdos (*.mim) icons/ -- directory containing icon files of input methdos (*.png) po/ -- directory containing localized messages of input methods *.map -- Charaset set mapping tables ---------------------------------------------------------------------- ## Thanks ## We appreciate all contributers (see the section "Contributed files" below) improving the m17n library.
