First of all Thank You very much for your quick response. I apologize for the typos and they were there because of a long all nighter i had pulled in order to get my project build that had dependency over the make version. Yes i did mean GNU make. Please find attached the make -v output in text file.
I had just installed Ubuntu 14 and this is the make version that i got. But after using ./build it worked like a charm. Thank you for your help again. I really appreciate it.
