I was asked by a mate the questions below, I hope somebody can point us
in the right directions:

Using a clean Ubuntu 8.10 (32-bit) install on VirtualBox 2.0.4.
uname -r: 2.6.27-7-generic
uname -m: i686

I am trying to compile a piece of software called "PLUNC", within the
set up instructions (using tcsh) there is the need to

set path = (. $UP/bin/'arch -k' $path)

When I do

make install >& install_report

and peruse the report file, there are lots of errors basically saying
that 'arch -k' can't be resolved. Some searching has led me to think
that 'arch -k' is the same as 'uname -m'. But looking around my system
finds no '/usr/bin/arch', and no 'bin/arch', and on searching the
repositories no likely candidate for arch to install.

So my questions are this:
1. is there an 'arch' command and how do I get the package?
2. failing this, how do I change 'arch -k' to 'uname -m' in all the
Makefiles is all the directories under ~/PLUNC?

Thanks in advance for any help and-or suggestions.

Regards,

Ashley
