Hi,

Sorry if this question was already asked, I tried to searched in some
archive but could not find it.

I am working on Solaris 8 on a sparc and I use perl 5.8.7
I compiled wxGTK+-2.8.7 and I wanted to add wxPerl on top of it.

I downloaded Wx-0.81 and followed the instruction:

perl Makefile.PL --wx-version=2.8.7 --wx-toolkit=gtk2

Which created all makefiles
I then called gmake which again created all makefiles and ended with the
following output ... at the end there is an error which seems to be
intentional as far as I could read in the makefile:

Makefile out-of-date with respect to you_better_rebuild_me
Cleaning current config before rebuilding Makefile...
gmake -f Makefile.old clean > /dev/null 2>&1
/opt/perl_5.8.7/bin/perl Makefile.PL

gmake: *** [Makefile] Error 255

I tried again gmake as requested and all the makefiles were again
created with the same error message at the end. I tried however to go
further with 
gmake test 
and 
gmake install 
but both did again exactly the same thing: Recreating the makefile and
telling me that I should restart gmake.

Am I doing something wrong ?

FYI: I am using wxGTK2.8.7 for some C++ development and it is working
fine hence I assume the installation of the libs is OK.

Thanks a lot,

Kind regards,

Jean-Philippe
