Hi there, Approximately 1 month ago, I downloaded the source for GNU make 3.80 from http://hpux.cs.utah.edu/hppd/hpux/Gnu/make-3.80/ on a fresh install of HP-UX 11.11 and attempted to build the package. All worked well till I performed 'make test' and received the following error
options/dash-t .......................................... Error running /usr/local/src/make-3.80/tests/../make (256): /usr/local/src/make-3.80/tests/../make -f work/options/dash-t.mk -t final-a final-b FAILED So instead I downloaded the compiled depot, extracted the compiled executable, placed it in the source directory and low it passed all the tests. As I was in a hurry to use gmake, I decided to perform the install with the executable and ignore the problem. Today I thought it would be edifying to research the above problem (knowing that before the package is uploaded to the HP-UX software archive some changes are made to some of the files). I first found that ./configure (modified for use at the archive) hard coded to 'cc' which, on my machine is the HP Bundled C compiler located in /usr/ccs/bin. Basically after some fiddling I found that it will build and check correctly when compiled with gcc 3.4.3 but fails the '-t' test when compiled using the cc_bundled. So then I went directly to the gnu source and performed similar test with the same results. Just thought you should know.
