I am not sure if it is okay to have the source directory as a subdirectory in the build directory. Also, after failing to configure you should start with a fresh untarred source.
Your problem in this case is - as already stated by druuna - a host requirements issue
Code:
mawk: scripts/gen-sorted.awk: line 19: regular expression compile failed (bad class -- [], [^] or [)
/[^
mawk: scripts/gen-sorted.awk: line 19: syntax error at or near ]
mawk: scripts/gen-sorted.awk: line 19: runaway regular expression /, "", subd ...
You need gawk and not mawk. Your host is probably Ubuntu, right?
OK, thanks people. It compiled fine now that i installed gawk. Hopefully i didn't eff anything else up though before this that will come back to bite me in the arse.
