building the cvs snapshot: pointerize troubles

[Fabian Roth <fin-deb@envoy.ch>]

hi all

i've been trying to make the cvs-snapshot. make check succeeds, but
make fails with:

make[3]: Entering directory `/home/fin/cvs/boot-floppies/utilities/dbootstrap'
pointerize -m po/C.mo < floppy_merge.c >> build/floppy_merge.t.c
String "Some important data was not read from the floppy disks. You
....
floppy disk from the drive.
" not found.
make[3]: *** [build/floppy_merge.t.c] Error 255

any ideas?
could it be because i got my packages out of unstable instead of
testing?

cheers, fabian
