Hi all, I am trying to port into Debian a package called ptolemy, written for sun workstations. I am getting an error during make. I am not an advanced linux user so any advise, even a simple one, will be appeciated. Here are the details:
<snipped> make[3]: Entering directory `/home/ptolemy/obj.linux/tcltk/itcl2.2' for dir in tcl7.6/unix tk4.2/unix itcl/unix itk/unix iwidgets2.2.0/unix ; do \ (cd $dir; make all) \ done; /bin/sh: -c: line 1: syntax error near unexpected token `;' /bin/sh: -c: line 1: `for dir in tcl7.6/unix tk4.2/unix itcl/unix itk/unix iwidg ets2.2.0/unix ; do (cd $dir; make all) done;' make[3]: *** [all] Error 2 make[3]: Leaving directory `/home/ptolemy/obj.linux/tcltk/itcl2.2' make[2]: *** [/home/ptolemy/obj.linux/tcltk/itcl2.2/libitcl.a] Error 2 make[2]: Leaving directory `/home/ptolemy/src/tcltk' make[1]: *** [tcltk_bin] Error 2 make[1]: Leaving directory `/home/ptolemy' make: *** [install_tcltk] Error 2 The procedure I followed before the make everything comand is: I downloaded the files pt0.7p1.src.tar.gz, pt0.7.other.src.tar.gz, and I unziped-untared them to the appropriate directories. I also defined the appropriate $PTOLEMY and $PTARCH variables. Then I tried make everything from the $PTOLEMY directory (all this in a tcsh). The package version is ptolemy 0.7, patch 1. The Debian version is 1.3.1.r6, kernel 2.0.31. Also, GNU C++ compiler gcc ver. 2.7.2.1 libg++27 ver. 2.7.2.1-8 and libc5 ver. 5.4.33-6 I have currently installed in my machine the packages tcl version 7.6 and tk version 4.2. I have read in the ptolemy installation guide that I can use my preinstalled tcl/tk by editing $PTOLEMY/mk/config-default.mk or creating the proper links in $PTOLEMY/tcltk/tcl* and $PTOLEMY/tcltk/tk* However they don't explain how you can do this.
