Howdy all! I am a developer for netCDF, a free software library that helps Earth scientists store array data.
We have a documentation directory, and it's the only one for which "make -j check" does not work. (Without the -j, it works.) I would really like to understand why this is not working! The distribution is available here: ftp://ftp.unidata.ucar.edu/pub/netcdf/snapshot/netcdf-daily.tar.gz To reproduce, unpack and do: ./configure && make -j check Here's how it fails: rc=0; \ CDPATH="${ZSH_VERSION+.}:" && cd .; \ else \ rc=$?; \ CDPATH="${ZSH_VERSION+.}:" && cd . && \ $restore $backupdir/* `echo "./netcdf-c.info" | sed 's|[^/]*$||'`; \ fi; \ rm -rf $backupdir; exit $rc TEXINPUTS=".:$TEXINPUTS" \ MAKEINFO='/bin/sh /machine/netcdf/n4_new6/missing --run makeinfo -I .' \ texi2dvi -s --pdf --batch netcdf-c.texi TEXINPUTS=".:$TEXINPUTS" \ MAKEINFO='/bin/sh /machine/netcdf/n4_new6/missing --run makeinfo -I .' \ texi2dvi -s netcdf-c.texi mkdir: cannot create directory `/machine/netcdf/n4_new6/man4/netcdf-install.t2d/tex_help': File exists /usr/bin/texi2dvi: cannot create directory: /machine/netcdf/n4_new6/man4/netcdf-install.t2d/tex_help make[1]: *** [netcdf-install.pdf] Error 1 make[1]: *** Waiting for unfinished jobs.... /usr/bin/texi2dvi: pdfetex exited with bad status, quitting. make[1]: *** [netcdf.pdf] Error 1 /usr/bin/texi2dvi: line 733: cd: /machine/netcdf/n4_new6/man4/netcdf.t2d/dvi/bak: No such file or directory make[1]: *** [netcdf.dvi] Error 1 Any suggestions would be appreciated!
