I will try your suggestion Randall but I am worried abut it not finding the host system type. What could that problem be ??
The contents of the file config.log in the source directory would probably be of some help. That will tell you what it's trying to do, and the error messages of whatever it is that's failing
Anders, The config log just shows programs needed. Checked a file called "Missing" It states that $1 is missing. Then suggests several file like Bison, Perl, etc. might have to be installed. Installed the two or three easy ones but there is one huge list of Perl files, 5 or six of which are already installed. Took a guess at one or two but came up with the same result. Then went back and installed gcc. More verbosity, but same result.
