Re: gnats installation error

Hi Chad
It was in July 2005...  I remember that I managed to solve this 
particular problem by just installing some libraries but no idea what 
libraries now. Any ideas what could it be?
I remeber that I got stuck on something else soon after and finally  
gave up installing gnats. Is there any good step-by-step installation 
guide for gnats 4.0 (this time it's 4.0 not 4.1) except: 
http://www.gnu.org/software/gnats/doc/4_0_beta_snapshot/index.html ? Or 
maybe any latest more installation friendly gnats version that could 
reuse such files (created under gnats 4.0):
