Talking How to get pork-0.99.1 running


Hello,

When I try to run ./configure on my pork s/w, it keeps giving me this error:

checking for a BSD-compatible install... /usr/bin/install -c checking whether build environment is sane... configure: error: newly created file is older than distributed files! Check your system clock"

I did some research, but only talks about changing my system time, is that really the problem? Thanks in advance for any advice.

It was the system clock, I ran

rdate -s time.nist.gov

and

hwclock --systohc

But now my question is, How would installing s/w such as pork have any connection with the system clock???????????????????
