I see.  But I still haven't managed to even install Yodl.

I am compiling on Solaris 2.4 with gcc and GNU make.

Problem 1:  Two files in the macros subdir contained the initial text
"#!bash".  This is not UNIX.  It might work under Linux or something,
but it definitely didn't work under Solaris.  Changing it to
#!/bin/bash worked for me.

Problem 2:  Using "install -d ${installdir}" is not a good idea.  The
install used is GNU install.

make[2]: Entering directory `/sw/src/yodl-1.30.16/src/yodl'
true
/sw/local/bin/install -c -d /sw/local/bin
/sw/local/bin/install: /sw/local/bin: Not owner

I have write permission in /sw/local/bin, but I don't own it.  Why do
people always assume that everybody installs all programs as root?

After fixing these problems I get:

/sw/local/bin/install: /sw/local/share/yodl/chartables: Not a directory

I give up.
