Hello, I have been trying to build and install the lesstif package on this machine which is running Redhat linux[1].
Since I do not have root access, I tried the normal mechanism for a local install: ./configure --prefix=/home/kwillis this completed successfully. make this completed successfully. make install this failed with: make[3]: Entering directory `/home/kwillis/downloads/lesstif-0.95.0/scripts/autoconf' make[3]: Nothing to be done for `install-exec-am'. test -z "/usr/share/aclocal" || mkdir -p -- "/usr/share/aclocal" /usr/bin/install -c -m 644 'ac_find_motif.m4' '/usr/share/aclocal/ac_find_motif.m4' /usr/bin/install: cannot create regular file `/usr/share/aclocal/ac_find_motif.m4': Permission denied Can someone please help me out with what I need to do to get a local install working? TIA!
