My AIX 6.1 machine do not have the gcc.
I am trying to install the gcc by building sources in AIX 6.1.
I configured gcc sources successfully but I am getting following errors at compilation
$ make -f Makefile
Makefile", line 195: make: 1254-055 Dependency line needs colon or double colon operator.
"Makefile", line 197: make: 1254-055 Dependency line needs colon or double colon operator.
"Makefile", line 200: make: 1254-055 Dependency line needs colon or double colon operator.
"Makefile", line 241: make: 1254-055 Dependency line needs colon or double colon operator.
make: 1254-058 Fatal errors encountered -- cannot continue.
make: 1254-004 The error code from the last command is 2.
Why did i get the above errors ? Please help me to solve this.
Can you paste the 4 lines from the Makefile indicated in the error messages (195,197,200,241)? According to the error you're missing a colon ( or double colon (: in those lines.
