RE: how to build GNU make from scratch ?

2003-10-24 Thread Bobby McNulty Junior
I just configured Make 3.80 in a seperate directory.
I made on called o in the root of the source code and configured.
Looks promising, as long as you are using the latest tools.
Cygwin B20 won't configure this way, if that is what you are using.

Hi!

I just unpacked the original GNU make sources and now am unsure about how to
build this thing. Calling './configure' does not give any output on the
shell. Is there any other way for GNU make?

What is Cygwin B20 in difference to what I normally get by setup.exe ???

[Joerg was of course joking...]

B20 is a *very* old version of Cygwin, which is completely
unsupported.  If you are using setup.exe to install, you will
not have B20.  I've no idea why Bobby M brought the subject up.

Returning to your original problem, it sounds as though you
have a broken installation.  make, configure et al should
run 'out of the box', and you should not need to rebuild
make.  If you do wish to rebuild make, you should use
the Cygwin version of the source tarball (which you can
get using setup.exe) as there are in all likelihood
Cygwin-specific patches which are not present in the
mainline GNU sources.

So, take a look at http://cygwin.com/problems.html
and send in the required details so we can help track
down your problem.

B20 was the unbelievable, awesome and complete Cygwin release, that
could have anwered any questions, including the question for 42.  But
they nuked it just before it was ready to give *that* answer ...

That was when I joined as project manager, or rather was replaced by a
shady government organization that ousted poor Geoff Noer.  Nowadays, I
just send out release after substandard release of cygwin, chuckling
evily and stroking the stuffed remains of my dead cat Bitsy.

There is no B20!  I have eliminated all copies of it.  You *must* use
1.5.5!  There will be no discussion on this.  It is all off-topic.

In fact, I think I don't like the name Igor, so that is off-topic,
too.  You are no longer allowed to use your name in this mailing list.

Shush!  Aht!  No.  Sssh!

Don't make me make the term Please do not send private email off-topic,
