Hi SergeyTanya !

On Sun 20 Aug 2000 (05:43), you muttered on the list:

 With ./configure - all right
 make install - Error message :
 /bin/sh: .././mkinstalldirs: Permision denied
 make[1]: *** [install-data-yes] Error 126
 
 What I have to do?
 
Be sure you have permission to execute mkinstalldirs, and permission to create
the dirs mkinstalldirs wants to create ;)

Grtz,

Nils.

Maybe you can post us a part of the 'configure' or 'make' messages
including the error message. You are be able to save it in a file
to expand your command like:

./configure --prefix=/usr  make keymap_defs.h  make 21 | tee make.out

This will save the messages in the file 'make.out'. 
Cut the messages untill the importand messages and send them as
attachement to this list. This will help to solve your problem.

bye - Wilhelm

What I have to do?

It looks to me like you don't have permission to execute
mkinstalldirs.  Running:

  chmod +x mkinstalldirs

from the directory where you typed "./configure" should do the trick,
but it seems really odd that it wouldn't untar with the proper
permissions.  Maybe this is symptomatic of another problem.

I could be wrong though.  Maybe mkinstalldirs is running.  Generally,
you have to run "make install" as root, unless you've configured the
program to install in a directory that your regular account has write
permissions for (usually someplace in your home directory).

Try typing:

  ls -l mkinstalldirs

If it looks something like this:

  -rwxr-xr-x   1 luke users 731 Dec 12  1998 mkinstalldirs
 ^  ^  ^
with all those "x"s in the first part, then my first guess was wrong.
In that case, try running "make install" as root.  (Which you'll
probably end up having to do anyway).

Good luck!
