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!
Keith
