help on installing gnats

[Wayne Dernoncourt]

I'm still trying to get Gnats (Gnats 3.113.1) to install and
run on a Solaris system.  The story so far, I've downloaded
the gz file, used gzip -d to extract the file to a tar file,
untarred it to /qtdevel/workspace/wayned/gnats-3.113.1.  I
then used (sorry for the wrapping):

./configure --prefix=/qtdevel/workspace/wayned/gnats-3.111
--exec-prefix=/qtdevel/workspace/wayned/gnats-3.113.1

Then I used make and make install.  This is towards the end
of make install (since the lines are so long and wrapped
arbitrarily, I wrapped them by hand with a blank line
between output lines, trying to stick to natural boundaries,
sometimes I succeeded - I really should've used a shorter
directory path...):

Hmmmm, does emacs need to be installed/available? (I normally
use nedit & vim for editing tasks)
