1694.0. "Is this the continuing -c problem again?" by AOSG::FILTER (Automatic Posting Software - mail to flume::puck) Wed Aug 16 1995 11:57

Date Of Receipt: 	15-AUG-1995 11:10:02.12
From: 	SMURF::ALPHA::gillett "Christopher Gillett USG  15-Aug-1995 1108"
To: 	odehelp@zk3.dec.com
CC: 	gillett@DEC:.zko.alpha
Subj: 	Is this the continuing "-c" problem again?

Trying to build kernels against ptos backing trees, I get the
following cursing when I try to build.  Is this already known
and under repair?

gillett@hackomatic.zk3::/proj2/ptos_kernel_build/src/kernel> build setup
relative path: ./kernel.
string passed to /usr/sde/ode3.0/tools/alpha_ace/bin/make:
   make -cF setup 
make: illegal option -- c
usage: make [-eiknqrst] [-D variable] [-d flags] [-f makefile ]
        [-I directory] [-j max_jobs] [variable=value]

Nope, Wrong make. The workon defines your path to have 
backingtree/tools/alpha_OSF1/alpha/hostbin

1st in your path. You've undone this somehow in your environment. If you've 
redefined your path to use local tools, and followed the instructions from the 
web page:


If you also want to have a local hostbin (ie make, lex, ctags, release etc.)
include the following line as well:

replace setenv TARGET_EXEC_PREFIX       "${tools_base}/hostbin/"


Then make sure you populate your sandbox. Perhaps your shell's path def is 
tromping on the sandbox def?
