User-Agent:       Opera/9.20 (X11; Linux x86_64; U; en)
Build Identifier: thunderbird-2.0.0.4-source

When I try to build on Ubuntu 7.04 x86_64 using --enable-ui-locale=en_US.utf8 I get the following error when compiling:

+++ making chrome /home/mike/Desktop/mozilla/obj-x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu/netwerk/locales  => ../../dist/bin/chrome/en_US.utf8.jar

Here is my .mozconfig:

. $topsrcdir/mail/config/mozconfig
#
# See http://www.mozilla.org/build/ for build instructions.
#

# Options for client.mk.
mk_add_options MOZ_CO_PROJECT=suite
mk_add_options MOZ_OBJDIR=@TOPSRCDIR@/obj-@CONFIG_GUESS@
mk_add_options MOZ_CO_DATE="25 Jun 2007 12:01 PDT"

# Options for 'configure' (same as command-line options).
ac_add_options --enable-application=mail
ac_add_options --enable-startup-notification
ac_add_options --enable-ui-locale=en_US.utf8
ac_add_options --enable-official-branding
ac_add_options --enable-pango
ac_add_options --enable-debug
ac_add_options --enable-extensions=default,lightning


When I comment out the enable-ui-locale option, it builds.

Here is the result of locale -a on my system:

mike@mike:~/Desktop/mozilla$ locale -a
C
en_AU.utf8
en_BW.utf8
en_CA.utf8
en_DK.utf8
en_GB.utf8
en_HK.utf8
en_IE.utf8
en_IN
en_NZ.utf8
en_PH.utf8
en_SG.utf8
en_US.utf8
en_ZA.utf8
en_ZW.utf8
POSIX

As you can see, I have en_US.utf8 installed.

Wrong sort of locale: --enable-ui-locale is looking for one of http://lxr.mozilla.org/l10n-mozilla1.8/source/ for translations of Mozilla-specific UI strings and URLs and prefs.
