[HACKERS] gmake does not finish on default slackware 9 (or 8.1) install

2003-04-03 Thread Andrew Gemmell
Hi all, 

I have just tried this with the same result on default
full install of slackware 8.1 and 9.0.

After installation (and download of pgsql 7.3.2) i ran
these commands :

tar -xzvf postgresql-7.3.2.tar.gz
cd postgresql-7.3.2
./configure
(worked fine)
gmake

gmake then ran into a infinite loop
i have piped gmake to a text file which shows where it
is looping etc.
this can be found at

I hope this is able to help someone , any questions,
please email me at this address, [EMAIL PROTECTED]

yours,
Andrew Gemmell

Looks like the clock on your system or file system has a serious problem.

Check your system clock.  I get the impression that the timestamp of the
configure file must be in the future compared to what your system thinks
the time is.  So, every time it rebuilds config.status, it still finds
it to be out-of-date compared to configure ...
