oh dear. 'make: command not found', what could this mean? 'make' is a program, not some mystic natural part of all computers on earth. it's a program. and when it's not installed and you try to run it, the shell complains about it, like this:

Code: Select all

bash: make: command not found

you must be tired, friend.

I didn't even know someone would want to have a system without make... I didn't even know you could do that with reasonable succes...

Make is like the center of the universe

. o O ( ./configure && make && make check && make install )

yes daylight savings has just hit hear and my bio clock is still screwed up
I thought make was part of gcc so there you go .learn something new every clock tick.
and your right
fancy ubuntu or any linux distro not having "make" as standard
I have never come across this b4

I shall right a letter to the Times.
(ohh thats a slang saying in england)
