Description Philippe Schaffnit 2006-09-13 08:11:27 UTC 
Hi!

I don't seem to be able to build the development sources (4.2.0 20060911) under SGI ('uname -a': IRIX64 fuel3 6.5 01100304 IP35). 

I've tried several things, but I keep getting the following error when 'bootstraping':

config.status: executing default commands
        if [ x"" != x ] && [ ! -d pic ]; then \
          mkdir pic; \
        else true; fi
        touch stamp-picdir
UX:make: ERROR: don't know how to make regex.c (bu42).
*** Error code 1 (bu21)
*** Error code 1 (bu21)
*** Error code 1 (bu21)

This is most likely related to our local set-up (...), but I have absolutely no idea of what else I can do, or where else to look for help...

Can anyone suggest anything?

Thanks!

Philippe

PS: the way I'm getting about to it: setenv CC gcc ;
/USER/philippe/Irix/Gcc_Sources/configure
--prefix=/USER/philippe/Irix/Gcc --enable-languages=c,fortran
--disable-maintainer-mode --disable-shared
--with-mpfr=/USER/philippe/Irix/Mpfr --with-gmp=/USER/philippe/Irix/Gmp
--with-htmldir ; make

This sounds like you are not using GNU make which is required.
Can you try again this time using GNU make?

Hi!

My PATH was indeed set wrong! (sorry about that...). It seems to work now (well, I mean it goes further...).

Thanks a lot for your help!
