Dear Members of the sword-devel list and Sword Bugs, I am attempting to compile sword-1.5.pre4 from the cvs sources, and I am getting the following error messages, which stops the compilation cold. I would appreciate any help that you could offer me to let me know what the problem might be. Here is the terminal output for make at the point of the error message:

My kernel is version 2.4.19rc3 compiled fro NuBus PPC machines by E. Kato from ftp.ppclinux.jp.or, compiled with gcc-2.95.4. I am running Yellow Dog Linux version 2.3 for PPC, which so far has been the best PPC Linux distribution for compiling that I have found for my old, slow NuBus-based Mac. I am using gcc-2.95.4, autoconf 2.13-14, automake-1.4p5-2, qt-3.0.3 with all the development libraries, and kde-3.0.1-1a, including kdelibs and kdelibs-devel, all from Yellow Dog Linux. Your suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Thanks to all in advance. Your brother in Christ, Louis A. Reed
