Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: gnome-doc-utils

I was trying to compile Gnote from source code that I had downloaded to 
~/Hämtningar/gnote-0.7.4. (Hämtningar is Swedish for Downloads).
./configure finished without problems but 'make' gave this error:
    anton@trofast:~/Hämtningar/gnote-0.7.4$ make

    db2omf: Could not construct the OMF subject element.
      Add a subject element to 
/home/anton/Hämtningar/gnote-0.7.4/help/gnote.omf.in.
    make[2]: *** [gnote-C.omf] Fel 1

    make: *** [all] Fel 2
Some research showed that others have had similar problems while building other 
projects that also utilise db2omf, see 
http://sourceforge.net/tracker/index.php?func=detail&aid=3127965&group_id=213712&atid=1026806
 and http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1755039. Moving the source code 
to a path that only includes ASCII characters seemed to help TiBeN from the 
SourceForge thread. I tried this as well and the build finished without 
problems:
