Hi - I am trying to install a source build of firebird database. I get the messages: configure: error: cannot guess build type; you must specify one i am trying ./configure -with-gpre-cobol checking build system type... ./config.guess: unable to guess system type This script, last modified 2001-09-04, has failed to recognize the operating system you are using. It is advised that you download the most up to date version of the config scripts from so I am interested that it is picking up this 2001 script when the config.guess scripts in /usr/share are newer.
Please provide any help suggestions if you can.
try "autoreconf ifv" this should update the config.guess but it is possible that you will hit other issues due to the 15 years passed
thx. -jim
