Hi Gunnar,

I tried the beta version and did exactly as described at 
http://max.kde.org:8080/mirrors/ftp.kolab.org/server/release/kolab-server-2.1.0/sources.  
Unfortunately I got the same problem trying to compile gcc (see below).  
I can send you the entire output if it will help. I even tried the GCC 
switch at http://wiki.kolab.org/index.php/Ubuntu_6.06.  BTW, this is a 
Kubunty Gutsy AMD64 machine.   Any help would be appreciated!
