Resent to say that before #make install
I should delete the directory, recreate, and issue make from $. I am only worried about the warning below. Was that because I issued make from root? ___________________ I was too tired yesterday. Now tried. Perhaps mistakenly, I issued the ln -s from my home, then cd to the directory containing the sources, from where i issued make: deb64:/home/francesco# ln - /usr/bin/gcc-4.1 /usr/local/bin/gcc cd gmmx deb64:/home/francesco/gmmx# make whereby a large number of lines where shown consecutively, of the type gcc -g -02 -c -o utility.o utility.c where utility.c is a file owned francesco francesco (date when the tarball was unzipped and untared), present before make, and utility.o, owned root root (date when make was issued), was generated following the command. the sequence ended with: gcc -g -o gmmx03 active.o angles.o attach.o column.o dolastat.o diagc.o Then, after other lines of text main.o: In function 'main': /home/francesco/gmmx/main.c: 71: warning: the 'gets' function is dangerous and should not be used. deb64: /home/francesco/gmmx# where <gmmx03> is the name of the tarball. I do not yet understand if something positive happened, but surely your suggestion has broken the ice. Thank you.
