Hi,

I compiled successfully lesstif-cvs on a RedHat 6.2 PC.

A "make install" works fine, but since the Makefile also has an
install-strip entry, I prefer that to produce smaller executables.

So, when I do

 make install-strip

the script runs for a short while and then exits with:

[...]
gmake[4]: Entering directory `/home/lahaye/SOFTWARE/lesstif/lib/config'
/bin/sh ../../mkinstalldirs /home/lahaye/opt/bin
 /bin/sh /home/lahaye/SOFTWARE/lesstif/install-sh -c -s mxmkmf
/home/lahaye/opt/bin/mxmkmf
strip: /home/lahaye/opt/bin/#inst.11164#: File format not recognized
gmake[4]: *** [install-binSCRIPTS] Error 1
gmake[4]: Leaving directory `/home/lahaye/SOFTWARE/lesstif/lib/config'
gmake[3]: *** [install-am] Error 2
gmake[3]: Leaving directory `/home/lahaye/SOFTWARE/lesstif/lib/config'
gmake[2]: *** [install-recursive] Error 1
gmake[2]: Leaving directory `/home/lahaye/SOFTWARE/lesstif/lib'
gmake[1]: *** [install-recursive] Error 1
gmake[1]: Leaving directory `/home/lahaye/SOFTWARE/lesstif'
gmake: *** [install-strip] Error 2


The strip executable is from binutils version 2.9.5.0.22-6 (rpm-package).
Is this a lesstif bug or is something else wrong on my Linux PC?

Regards,
Rob.
