Yes, it would appear that the utility is from 2001. If it hadn't been updated for
changes in linux since that date it my not run.

Those files above don't exist on my system and "dnf whatprovides" for each of them
returns "Error: No Matches found".
Now, you may be able to "force" it to work by installing glibc-langpack-en which
provides /usr/share/locale/en_GB/LC_MESSAGES/libc.mo and then creating a link to it
from one of the locations the program is looking for it. Or, it may get past that
and trip over something else that has changed since 2001.
