    In a message to alt.os.linux.gentoo, Klaus Dahlke described errors he
    got while "make"ing firefox:

    gmake[3]: Entering directory `/Opt/work/mozilla/netwerk/resources'
    +++ making chrome /Opt/work/mozilla/netwerk/resources =>
    .../../dist/bin/chrome/comm.jar
    +++ adding chrome ../../dist/bin/chrome/installed-chrome.txt
    +++ content,install,url,jar:resource:/chrome/comm.jar!/content/necko/
    zip warning: ../comm.jar not found or empty
    adding: content/necko/redirect_loop.xul (stored 0%)

    error: file '../../toolkit/locales/en-US/chrome/necko/contents.rdf'
    doesn't
    exist at ../../config/make-jars.pl line 418, line 9.

    I get the same errors on Yellow Dog Linux 3.0.1. One respondent suggested
    setting LINGUAS to "en" either in the ./configure or make. I tried both
    with no effect.

    Does anyone have other suggestions for how to get this make to work?
