After installing Patch#2 and running 'make': cc checknews.o process.o cpathinit.o -o checknews Undefined: _line _header *** Error code 1 Stop. The Makefile says: checknews: checknews.o process.o cpathinit.o rextern.o $(CC) $(LFLAGS) checknews.o process.o cpathinit.o rextern.o -o checknews So I removed 'checknews' and tried again. This time it did: cc checknews.o process.o cpathinit.o rextern.o -o checknews and went on compiling the rest correctly. The $64K question: were did 'rextern.o' go the first time 'make' was run??? The system is 4.3 (but I think 'make' is still vanilla 4.2 - does that mean anything?) Perplexfully yours, -- Amos Shapir National Semiconductor (Israel) 6 Maskit st.

Simple really, although I think the Makefile should be fixed. The first time through, make(1) detects that makefile is out of date compared to makefile.dist, runs localize.sh to recreate it, then continues, using the existing image of the original makefile in memory. The original makefile, in this case, did not have rextern.o in the checknews dependencies. I think that the amount of included text above, and the amount of response are appropriate. -- +==== Jim Budler ==== Advanced Micro Devices, Inc. ==== (408) 749-5806 ====+ | Compuserve: 72415,1200 | | E-mail: jimb@amdcad.AMD.COM | +======================== .signature = 4 lines ============================+
