Liz Kramer (liz%beasley@sparc.ecology.uga.edu) writes on 17 Nov 93:hi, I'm in the process of compiling GRASS on a sun sparc 2 running sun
4.1.3 I have a fatal error in the GISGEN program: make: Fatal error: Don't
know how to make target `OBJ/view.oOBJ/whoami.o'^^^ missing a space.
GISGEN failure at STEP: src/libes/gis
grassp-list@moon.cecer.army.mil. Also, you might check
src/libes/gis/Gmakefile and see if something looks unusual
around view.o and whoami.o.
I checked the soruce code and nothing seems strange to me. Here is the head
file that I am using for the compilation.
the head looks okay, but there must be something funny in
the Gmakefile (the lack of a space).
in src/libes/gis/Gmakefile, I find:
unctrl.o\
view.o\
whoami.o\
wind_2_box.o\
If you change this to (completely re-typing all four lines)
unctrl.o\
wind_2_box.o\
view.o\
whoami.o\
I wonder if you get the error
"know how to make target `OBJ/wind_2_box.oOBJ/view.o'"
or the same as you got before. The thinking here is
that 1) there's something funny in the Gmakefile, or
2) there may be a variable length problem with /bin/sh
or make (perhaps a kernal config thing)
Try removing OBJ/make.rules, too. Maybe NFS or something
hiccupped while this was being written.
Do anyone else have any clues?
