[Gdb] Another try

Michael C;

 

Sorry to be so dumb.  But this stuff is just complicated until you know the details.  Again I appreciate your help.

 

Here is where I am.

 

Created subdirectories:

 

/usr/local/bin/gnu/INSTALL/

/usr/local/bin/gnu/make-3.79.1/

 

 

copied the make-3.79.1.tar file to the subdirectory

untared it

cd to the make-3.79.1 subdirectory that tar created

issued the command ./config --prefix=/usr/local/bin/gnu/INSTALL

issued sh build.sh and the files compiled

 

Everything worked ok.

 

BUT now, the next step is to "make install", but I do not have a "make" in the subdirectory.  I do have an install-sh.  can tha tbe used?

 

HELP! please.

 

 

Also, I do have an "ar".  How do I use it.  Do I just type the instruction as you gave it?

 

ar rc libiberty.a \

 

Again, thanks for your patiences.  I have learned a tremendous amount about gnu installations.
