Thank you Lutz and Tim. By configuring with the following: ./Configure linux-ppc I was able to run "make" successfully and then run "make test" and "make install" successfully as well. I was able therefore to successfully build, run the build verification tests and install on the 64 bit Suse Linux on powerPC. Now all we need to do is get ./config to recognize this environment as "linux-ppc" and we will be fine. Thanks again. John

(This is a bug that has to be fixed.) Configure also contains an entry for "linux-ppc", I however don't know whether it is suitable for 64bit PowerPC. Please try "Configure linux-ppc" directly instead of calling "config" and keep us updated, whether it works out.
