Yes -- rerunning configure, rerunning autogen.sh, running make clean; make all gave the same error. On a fresh repo, the problem became more apparent, since sbr/dtimep.c came up missing. It comes from sbr/dtimep.l, which meant lex/flex was missing. I should have checked for that when I realized yacc was missing. Oh well. But here's the thing: when configure doesn't find lex or flex, it sets the value of the program to ":". wth? Wouldn't "false" be a far more effective substitute? If there's a way to tell configure to change that behavior, we should consider it. Anyway, after installing flex, all is well on Ubuntu 20. paul =---------------------- paul fox, [email protected] (arlington, ma)
