Problem compiling gnome-libs-1.0.53

[Frédéric LESPEZ <flespez club-internet fr>]

Hi,

I ran into the following problem when i tried to compile gnome-libs-1.0.53:
i made:
./configure --prefix=/usr
then
make
Make send me the following :
make  all-recursive
make[1]: Entering directory `/tmp/gnome-libs-1.0.53'
Making all in po
make[2]: Entering directory `/tmp/gnome-libs-1.0.53/po'
make[2]: *** No rule to make target `en.gmo', needed by `all-yes'.  Stop.
make[2]: Leaving directory `/tmp/gnome-libs-1.0.53/po'
make[1]: *** [all-recursive] Error 1
make[1]: Leaving directory `/tmp/gnome-libs-1.0.53'
make: *** [all-recursive-am] Error 2

Apparently, something goes wrong because configure.in file in
gnome-libs-1.0.53 directory contains the lang "en_GB" in ALL_LINGUAS
variables. It seems that lang names must be only 2 characters.

I tried with : 
./configure --with-included-gettext
and 
./configure --with-catgets
but the problem remains.

Fred.
