hi!

firstly, i am very new to linux, so forgive me for asking stupid questions (it's easy to install in windows. next, next, use defaults, finish ;))

i have recently migrated to suse linux 9.3 and have, after hearing from a friend having problems installing from fedora rpm's (suse 8.2 rpm directory on the website gives a 404 error), tried to build pgadmin3 on my system, following instructions on the website. after several tries pgadmin3 is now operational.

upon executing the binary, i get the following error message:
Cannot convert from the charset '@LOCALE,UTF-8,ISO-8859-2,CP1250'!

after clicking ok, everything seems to work without problems. is this message a result of using the "--enable-debug" switch? does it go away if i were to build without that switch?

i also had the same problems as described here
http://www.mail-archive.com/pgadmin-support@postgresql.org/msg04040.html

which were solved after following dave's hint. is there an (easy) way to avoid using 'LDFLAGS="-L/usr/lib -lkrb5" ./configure ...' every time i try to build pgadmin?

pgadmin3 has settled into the /usr/local/pgadmin3 directory. is this the same on all systems? what i mean to ask is that the binary /usr/local/pgadmin3/bin/pgadmin3 isn't in the default $PATH. i would like pgadmin3 to root itself in the /usr/local/bin directory (--prefix=/usr/local when configuring). is this generally a bad idea?

and even though i'm a linux newbie i'd like to try to look into providing a rpm for suse 9.3, if there is any interest? this seems interesting enough to me so i wanna play a bit :) i'll have to r some fm first though.

thank you :)
regards,
M
