Hi again, This is the first time I have tried this. I am in the process of installing spellutils from source (?) onto my SuSE 7.3 Pro system. Does this look right so far?

Yes, this looks good - it's these lines that are important, Makefile is the file that the command make uses to determine what it should do. config.h is a standard name for a C header file that contains config information for the app you're building
linking ./intl/libgettext.h to intl/libintl.h
I guess this is specific to spellutils, so don't worry if you don't see this when building other software -- James Ogley, Unix Systems Administrator, Pinnacle Insurance Plc james.ogley@pinnacle.co.uk www.pinnacle.co.uk +44 (0) 20 8731 3619 Using Free Software since 1994, running GNU/Linux (SuSE 7.x) This email was created and sent with Ximian Evolution 1.0.3 NEW: Advogato diary at www.advogato.org/person/riggwelter *********************************************************************** CONFIDENTIALITY.

Now if all if this looks OK, all I need to do is "make" and a "make install" correct?
Yes, correct. It will end up in /usr/local then. If you want to put it somewhere else, you will have to specify --prefix to ./configure. ./configure --help Is a good starting point. -- Mads Martin Jørgensen, http://mmj.dk "Why make things difficult, when it is possible to make them cryptic and totally illogic, with just a little bit more effort?" -- A.

hi, it looks like you tried to install the package as an ordinary user. the following output is produced by the command: make install this is usually possible if you are logged in as root. to achieve this after running the command: make change to user root by typing: su after which you will be prompted for root's password. then do: make install
