Hi Cody,

 

When you type the configure command, make sure to precede the word prefix with two dashes, for example:

configure --prefix=/usr

 

--Al

Hi,

  I just installed Ubuntu 5.10 on my laptop and I can't seem to get orca to install. it keeps complaining the compiler will not compile.

 

here are the commands I typed:

 

cd /home/churst/Desktop/orca

./configure prefix=/usr

error

:error:C compiler cannot create executable

See config.log for mre details

 

Here are the things that it failed to check that were No.

 

checking for gawk ... no

Checking whether makesets $(MAKE) ... no

checking whether to enable maintainer - specific portions of makefiles ... no

Checking for style of include used by make ... none

checking for C compiler default output filename ... configure:error:C compiler can not create executables

 

what is going on here and what do i need to install to get orca to compile correctly?

 

cody
