Hi Brandon, It works on IRIX with GNU make It doesn't works on IRIX with /sbin/make
/sbin/make will works if you remove all the "DESTDIR =" line from the Makefile. The Makefile.in in amanda are build with automake-1.4, you could try with a more recent release off automake. The package you successfully build use which release of automake? Jean-Louis On Tue, Sep 17, 2002 at 12:47:19PM -0500, Brandon D.
