I'm running RedHat Linux 7.2 on this machine, (yes, we should update
but we have some legacy software issues to sort out first). Ive also
tried compiling on one of our 'newer' machines (RedHat 9.0) with the
same result.
There doesnt seem to be a README.linux
Not sure that I can help much. I have Mandrake-9.1 which, I believe, should
exhibit similar issues - but both 5.8.6 and 5.8.7 build fine for me. Below
you'll find the output I get from running 'sh Configure -des'. Maybe it can
help pinpoint the problem. (If there's something else you'd like, just let
us know.)
Cheers,
Rob
First let's make sure your kit is complete. Checking...
Locating common programs...
Checking compatibility between /bin/echo and builtin echo (if any)...
Symbolic links are supported.
Checking how to test for symbolic links...
Your builtin 'test -h' may be broken.
Trying external '/usr/bin/test -h'.
You can test for symbolic links with '/usr/bin/test -h'.
Good, your tr supports [:lower:] and [:upper:] to convert case.
Using [:upper:] and [:lower:] to convert case.
