Re: [mdb-dev] databases/mbdtools + unixODBC
GNU make is `gmake` on FreeBSD. Try to use this command instead `make`. ___ freebsd-ports@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-ports To unsubscribe, send any mail to "freebsd-ports-unsubscr...@freebsd.org"

You can only rely on > `gmake deinstall` or something like that. It depends. If it is just for your personal use, then e.g. your home directory is also fine. If you want to make a port of it, then it should be installed in PREFIX (which is /usr/local by default).

RE: Re: [mdb-dev] databases/mbdtools + unixODBC
> GNU make is `gmake` on FreeBSD. Try to use this command instead `make`. Thanks. autogen, configure and gmake all run without errors (although I had to install txt2man). If you don't mind a couple more questions to make sure I'm on the right track. 1. INSTALL says acinclude.m4 must be deleted when using libtool 1.3.4+. I have libtool 2.2.6b, did not delete acinclude.m4, and did not get an error. Is this correct? 2. configure reports that option "--enable-sql" is unrecognised. Is this correct? INSTALL says the SQL engine is used by ODBC, but .../src/odbc/.libs/libmdbodbc.so.0 is compiled (and linked to from libmdbodbc.so). Is this correct? Does this mean that an SQL engine executable is no longer possible? (should I care?) 3. do I need to (or should I) copy the utility programs and odbc driver manager to their typical (as I understand them to be) locaitions in the FreeBSD tree? (e.g., /usr/local/bin, /usr/local/lib).

Also, some options may trigger search for certain includes or libs. On FreeBSD they are located in /usr/local/{include,lib}, while configure searches only /usr/{include,lib} by default. This can cause some features to be turned off. > 3. do I need to (or should I) copy the utility programs and odbc driver > manager to their typical (as I understand them to be) locaitions in the > FreeBSD tree?
