[Help-gsl] GSL configure problem

[Paul Jackson]

I’m trying to compile gsl 1.11, and get the error shown below when trying to 
compile using cygwin (v1.7) on a windows XP machine (Compaq PC).

address@hidden ~
$ cd gs*
address@hidden ~/gsl-1.11
$ ./configure
checking for a BSD-compatible install... /usr/bin/install -c

Any help appreciated.  Thanks in advance.
