It would be very useful to me if you could include some actual
output cut-and-paste from your attempt.
Obviously this behaviour of make is very bizarre. I do not see
any attempt to install things when I run make (as the output
in my last email showed). Of course it does later if I run
'make install'. Therefore something rather fundamental must
be different between your configuration and mine.
Does your Makefile start like this?
# Makefile.in generated by automake 1.9.6 from Makefile.am.
# Makefile. Generated from Makefile.in by configure.
...
Does your output from make at least start like this (before
it goes into a loop)?
Making all in bin
make[1]: Entering directory `/home/Administrator/autoconf-2.60/bin'
rm -f autom4te autom4te.tmp
sed -e 's|@address@hidden|/bin/sh|g' -e 's|@address@hidden|/bin/perl|g' -e
's|@address@hidden|/usr/local/bin|g' -e
...
I.e. a normal recursive make?
So far I can only think of 3 possible causes:
1) Makefile is corrupt
- What version of tar do you use?
mine:
$ tar --version
tar (GNU tar) 1.13.19
- Windows line endings (cr)
only Unix line endings are expected
2) Different version of make?
mine:
$ make --version
GNU Make version 3.79.1, by Richard Stallman and Roland McGrath.
3) Different shell?
mine:
$ sh --version
GNU bash, version 2.04.0(1)-release (i686-pc-msys)

Perhaps 2 and 3 are already ruled out since apparently both you
and I can build gcl and Axiom from build-improvements without
any problem.
Stunned.
