i just downloaded ver 3.02 of kpilot and decided to try my first
compiling operation (compiling-is that the word?)
it didn't go well, here is what happened:
[root@localhost kpilot-3.0.2]# ./configure
loading cache ./config.cache
checking host system type... configure: error: can not guess host type;
you must specify one
[root@localhost kpilot-3.0.2]# ./configure --host=i586
loading cache ./config.cache
checking host system type... i586-pc-none
checking target system type... i586-pc-none
checking build system type... i586-pc-none
checking for a BSD compatible install... /usr/bin/install -c
checking whether build environment is sane... yes
checking for working aclocal... found
checking for working autoconf... found
checking for working automake... found
checking for working autoheader... found
checking for working makeinfo... missing
checking whether make sets ${MAKE}... yes
checking for a C-Compiler...
checking for gcc... gcc
checking whether the C compiler (gcc ) works... no
configure: error: installation or configuration problem: C compiler
cannot create executables.
[root@localhost kpilot-3.0.2]#
two apparent problems there:
1. makeinfo - is this an rpm because i've searched my install cd and i
can't find it
2. C compiler - please explain
where am i going wrong,what other info should i give?
bascule
