hello,
I am trying to build various pieces of open source
software that use
configure scripts. I execute the script, and it gives the
following output:
> checking for a BSD-compatible install...
/usr/bin/install -c
> checking whether build environment is sane...
configure: error: ls -t
> appears to fail. Make sure there is not a broken
> alias in your environment
> configure: error: newly created file is older than
distributed files!
> Check your system clock
> ./configure: line 70: 15277 Segmentation fault sed
-n
>
"s/^\([_$as_cr_alnum]*_cv_[_$as_cr_alnum]*\)=\(.*\)
/\1=\2/p"
It has given these errors for all of the configure scripts I
have
successfully run. I am using NTP with time.redhat.com as my
server, so I
am pretty sure that the problem is not that the time is
wrong (In fact,
for one piece of software the last modification time was
august 2005.)
When I run ls -t, it appears to work, e.g. it organizes the
files based
on the modification time given by ls -l. I was wondering if
anyone knew
of a fix for this problem, or something else that I can do.

I am using pretty much a completely untouched install,
having only
successfully added apt-RPM, sbcl, and firefox-ppc.
I am also haing trouble with modules utilities. lsmod,
insmod, rmmod,
and modprobe do not appear to exist. neither do ifconfig,
ifup, or
ifdown. I was wondering if there are specific packages that
I need to
install to have those utilities.
thanks,
nicholas
