install "make"
Hello, Linux:
To install "make", I dowload make-3.80 and install it following the instruction. At the end, there is no "make" available. I don't know what could be wrong? I use Fedora 8. Thank you for your advice Bo Here is how I did: [Yang@localhost Linux]$ cd make-3.80 [Yang@localhost make-3.80]$ ./configure checking for a BSD-compatible install... /usr/bin/install -c checking whether build environment is sane... yes checking for gawk... gawk --- [Yang@localhost make-3.80]$ sh ./build.sh compiling ar.c... compiling arscan.c... compiling commands.c... compiling default.c... compiling dir.c... compiling hash.c... compiling remote-@REMOTE@.c... gcc: ./remote-@REMOTE@.c: No such file or directory gcc: no input files [Yang@localhost make-3.80]$ make bash: make: command not found [Yang@localhost make-3.80]$ ./make bash: ./make: No such file or directory |
which distribution are you using?
just se the packetmanager of your distribution to install make |
I thought you already installed 'make' ??

Hi,
I install my Fedora 8 from a DVD which is attached to the Book "Linux Dummies". I go back the DVD to see if there is "make" install. But I can't find anything in the DVD which is shown as "Fedora 8 live i686". > I thought you already installed 'make' ?? No. I only download the Make-3.80 package. When I tried to install, it complained that there was no c compiler. I have to install gcc along with others. I then install make-3.80, When I check where is the make, it is not there. I guess that the program is not installed. Thank you for your advice Bo |
Hi,
I am still blocked here and don't know what is going on with the install of make-3.80. Can anyone suggest me which make package is for Fedora 8? Thank you Bo |
Did you tried the packet manager of your distribution?

Like all the other packages on debate in the previous
thread, make-3.81-10.fc8.i386.rpm is here > > http://download.fedora.redhat.com/pu...6/os/Packages/ .... |
Let your package manager do the heavy lifting for you. I'm sure you will need more than just the make package.

he has an install DVD so he can create a local repo and install from that using yum..
http://www.city-fan.org/tips/SubsetRepositoriesFedora9 I can hardly believe how lame it is, that fedora can't detect and install from a CD/DVD source with it's package manager by default.. at least there is a workaround. also - https://lists.dulug.duke.edu/piperma...ry/010568.html |

Time to switch Distros if you are going to be constantly working offline..
Might I suggest Debian or Ubuntu, where you can easily download CD's or DVDs full of packages that you will be able to install, any time, anywhere, without the need for Internet connectivity, with automatic dependency handling. Fedora doesn't seem very user friendly, to someone without a net connection. |
Dear All:
WIth "make-3.81-10.fc8.i386.rpm", I finally "make" it! Thank you very much for all your help Cheers Bo |
