Greetings all, I have a RedHat 7.1 on i386 (Pentium III), and I am trying to build the 2.23.40-1 src rpm, and I get the following error: ----------------------------------- th-extra-charsets=complex --exec-prefix=/usr --libexecdir=/usr/sbin --sysconfdir=/etc --datadir=/usr/share --localstatedir=/var/lib/mysql --infodir=/usr/info --includedir=/usr/include --mandir=/usr/man --with-comment="Official MySQL RPM"; # Add this for more debugging support # --with-debug # Add this for MyISAM RAID support: # --with-raid ' creating cache ./config.cache checking host system type... i686-pc-linux-gnu checking target system type... i686-pc-linux-gnu checking build system type... i686-pc-linux-gnu checking for a BSD compatible install... /usr/bin/install -c checking whether build environment is sane... yes checking whether make sets ${MAKE}... yes checking for working aclocal... found checking for working autoconf... found checking for working automake... found checking for working autoheader... found checking for working makeinfo... found checking whether to enable maintainer-specific portions of Makefiles... no checking whether build environment is sane... yes checking whether make sets ${MAKE}...

Any ideas on what is going wrong? When I compile the source tar ball, it compiles, and the configure script doesn't give the same error.
