Hi Andrei,
after installed gmake 8.0 it gets compiled! However several errors appear
while installing.
1. /bin/sh: test: argument expected
In Makefile line 173: if [ ! -e $(cfg-prefix)/$(cfg-dir)ser.cfg ]; then
\
sh doesn't accept the option "-e". After changed this to "-f" it
works.
Thanks, fixed on cvs.
2. make: ginstall: Command not found
Makefile.defs line 70:
-------------------------
ifeq ($(OS), solaris)
#use GNU versions
INSTALL = ginstall
TAR = gtar
else
------------------------
On my mashine I only have installed gnu install, so its name is just install
instead of ginstall. After changed this it works.
Well I don't want to write tests to see which *install/*tar is the gnu one
(one my machines install is from solaris & ginstall is GNU). I already
do this for ld & the version of ld gcc uses and I don't want to do it
for each and every tool that might differ.
What I did is now (latest cvs) INSTALL & TAR can be set in the
environment and the values there will take precedence.
e.g:
(solaris machine)
export INSTALL=install
make install #will use install
make install # without INSTALL in the env => will use ginstall
TAR=star make tar # will use star
make tar TAR=star # the same thing as above
3. install -m 755 ser /usr/local/ser/sbin/
find: cannot follow symbolic link /lib/locale/C/LC_MESSAGES/iscan: No

find: cannot follow symbolic link

install: ser was not found anywhere!
make: *** [install-bin] Error 2
I have no idea how to fix it. Why do we need iscan? The symbolic link
I don't need it. Probably install wants to use it for some reason.
