OK, I now tryed with a fresh install of ubuntu, and installed the
packages wich it asked for. Now i'm stuck at the gtkhtml packages. (when
running the autogen script)
The package is installed but it can't find it. I'll just think I will
wait a month or two, to get some upgraded packages/lib's. (Since this is
ubuntu 5.10, it will not be released before 13 oct.

But, is it possible for someone else on this list to make a norwegian
(no) translation file, and send it to me. ?
Is it then possible for me in a moth or so to send it somewhere to make
the changes included? (for the next build ofcourse).

If i'm correct in some of these, please send me a couple of words on how
to do this.

I'm working as a seaman and will be on work for a couple of weeks,and
that is a nice place to do some translation.
Is it also possible for me to edit the already created glossary file
(wich i got from the CVS?)
