Thank you for your kindness to share and endeavors you have put it to
create such a nice program.
I am a first time user of gstat; I found out one hour ago from my friend
who uses it. I went to the web page, down-loaded gstat-2.3.3, and tried to
build gstat. I got problems.
When I typed ./configure, after running for a while it gave error
messages saying that it can not find 'doc' directory under which it wanted
to make another directory 'tex'. So I made doc directory by myself and it
made tex directory, and generated makefile under it, but still gave an
error message saying it couldn't find doc/tex/makefile.in. I hope it's
absence will not give me any problem in the future.
Anyway, I went ahead for make.
This time it gave me 2 errors and couldn't make sim.o and gstat under src
since it couldn't find 'meschach/matrix2.h'. When I looked for it, it was
there! So I went into sim.c line #34, and edited the line;
original : #include "meschach/matrix2.h"
fixed : #include "../meschach/matrix2.h"
Then I was able to finish building gstat...
For another minor thing:
When I tried to install software, it kept trying to install under the
default directory, which would be /usr/local, even though I used
--prefix=PREFIX option when configuring it in the first place. So I had to
go into makefile and makefile.in and changed the install directory.
original : INSTALLDIR = /usr/local/bin
fixed : INSTALLDIR = /my_path_name/bin
And I made the bin directory under my_path_name, after that it generated
'gstat' under /my_path_name/bin.
I hope I will get great help from gstat for conducting my research.
I just wanted to thank you and let you know minor things of this new
version you upload on Apr. 23rd 2001.
Thank you!!
