octave-forge building problem on solaris 10

[Thomas PERRIER]

Hello,

 

I am trying to build octave-forge (octave-forge-2006.03.17) on my solaris 10 (intel), but the build crashes !!

you can finf the build log in attached files.

 

I have several problem:

 

1- when i run ./configure

I have got the following warning:

 

 

checking for octave_function(void)... yes
checking term.h usability... no
checking term.h presence... yes
configure: WARNING: term.h: present but cannot be compiled
configure: WARNING: term.h:     check for missing prerequisite headers?
configure: WARNING: term.h: see the Autoconf documentation
configure: WARNING: term.h:     section "Present But Cannot Be Compiled"
configure: WARNING: term.h: proceeding with the preprocessor's result
configure: WARNING: term.h: in the future, the compiler will take precedence
configure: WARNING:     ## ------------------------------------------ ##
configure: WARNING:     ## Report this to the AC_PACKAGE_NAME lists.  ##
configure: WARNING:     ## ------------------------------------------ ##
checking for term.h... yes

is it an issue ?

could it be a reason of my builfd crash?

 

2- when I run : gmake

 

I have some error like  (you can find all of the errors in the attached buildlog file)

 

Processing main/cell/...

./install-sh -c cell2mat.m.in cell2mat.m
/bin/bash: ./install-sh: Ce fichier ou ce répertoire n'existe pas
gmake[2]: [cell2mat.m] Error 127 (ignored) ....

actually, the compiler does not find install-sh. It's normal beacause the the file does not exist in those repertories !!

 

 

3 - If i force to compile by running gmake -k install:

nothing happen. So the build crashes and the compiler say things like :

 

Processing main/strings/...

Processing main/symbolic/...
Processing main/time/...
gmake[1]: Target `install' not remade because of errors.

 

:'(

 

 

 

So I was so upset with that compilation , that i decided to paste the install-sh file present at the root of the octave-forge-2006.03.07 repertory in all repertory needing it.

 

So, now when I run : gmake -k install, here is what happen:

 

bash-3.00$ gmake -k install

Installation complete.
 
To use, add the following to .octaverc:
   LOADPATH = [ '/octave-forge:/octave-forge//:', LOADPATH ];
   EXEC_PATH = [ ':', EXEC_PATH ];
 
To uninstall, remove the following:
   MPATH    = /octave-forge
   OPATH    = /octave-forge
   XPATH    =
   ALTMPATH = /octave-forge-alternatives/m
   ALTOPATH = /octave-forge-alternatives/oct/
 
Some FIXES may be out of date.  Check the scripts in:
   /octave-forge/FIXES
   /octave-forge

 

just the mex file is created , and then the build crashes again!!!

What does it mean "Not enough arguments !!!"

Is anybody have any idea ? because i haven't any more!!!

 

thank you very much.
