Message-ID: Hallo there, I?ve just tried building libcutl (on OS X 10.8.2 with llvm-gcc-4.2 from Xcode 4.6.2) and got the "No rule to make target `INSTALL', needed by `all-am?. Stop.? error message. Would you be able to shed any light on the origin of the problem and a possible solution? Thank you in advance, S.

Stop. I just tried to build and install libcutl-1.7.1.tar.gz on my GNU/Linux box and everything works without any problems. What are the exact steps that you performed that lead you to this error?

In-Reply-To: Message-ID: Hi Boris, Thank you for your reply. After receiving it, I tried to do everything from scratch and this time it worked. I am not sure what the reason was for the make error before, but I made two changes (maybe, I should have tried them one by one, though): I used gcc 4.8 instead of llvm and I ran configure in a folder different from the libcutl source. I did try gcc and make fell out the same way, but I had not re-created the source folder from scratch before doing that. In my experience, many packages don?t like configure run in their source folder, so this is my current theory. This is what did not work for me: - unzip the file ?libcutl-1.7.1.zip? to ~/Developer/libcutl-1.7.1 - cd ~/Developer/libcutl-1.7.1 - ./configure --prefix=/usr/odb - make This is what finally worked: - unzip the file ?libcutl-1.7.1.zip? to ~/Developer/libcutl-1.7.1 - cd ~/Developer/libcutl-1.7.1 && mkdir build && cd build - export PATH=/usr/gcc-4.8.0/bin:$PATH - ../configure CXX=g++-4.8 CPP=cpp-4.8 CC=gcc-4.8 --prefix=/usr/odb - make - sudo make install I have another comment/question about installing odb, but I am sending it as a separate message Thank you again, S.
