[CWB] solaris compile

[Rayson, Paul]

Hi,

That was it. Sorry - stupid of me not to try gmake - it is mentioned in
the INSTALL file.

It completes as far as setting up the man pages because I haven't got
pod2man, but that isn't a prerequisite. Next problem is the make
install:

juilland-216> gmake install
gmake -C cl install   # not in for loop to make sure we abort on error
gmake[1]: Entering directory `/corpus/paul/cwb/cwb-2.2.b99-RC1/cl'
if [ ! -d /usr/local/lib ]; then
/corpus/paul/cwb/cwb-2.2.b99-RC1/cl/../install.sh -c -m 755  -d
/usr/local/lib ; fi;
/corpus/paul/cwb/cwb-2.2.b99-RC1/cl/../install.sh -c -m 644  libcl.a
/usr/local/lib
cp: cannot create /usr/local/lib/_inst.26740_: Permission denied
gmake[1]: *** [install] Error 2
gmake[1]: Leaving directory `/corpus/paul/cwb/cwb-2.2.b99-RC1/cl'
gmake: *** [install] Error 2

I'm not admin on my local machine but I have specified a PREFIX that I
do have write permission to.

Paul.

I'm afraid I don't have a pre-built binary lying around, but I tested  
the compilation process on a Solaris 2.8 machine before uploading the  
release candidate, so it should work _in principle_. :o}

Possible cause of the problem: you seem to be using the system "make"  
utility shipped with Solaris rather than GNU Make.  The current  
Makefile architecture is only compatible with GNU make, so you may  
have to install and use "gmake".

If you can't get it to work -- I'd be interested to help you solve  
any remaining problems, of course -- I can prepare a binary build.  
But it'll be a while before I find the time to do this.

Best wishes,
Stefan
