So I'm usgin only "make clean all" and after "sudo make install PREFIX=/usr".
what about the second sentence of that error message?
"You are trying to build with 2.7.1."
that's the problem... you have to build it with 2.6.2...
Personally, I think mentioning OVERRIDEVERSIONCHECK is the problem.
Whatever you write as text, people will only read that.
agreed... i really wanted to leave it out of my previous suggested rewrite of
the error message but i didn't...
The message should refer to a boringly long FAQ item, with the mention of
overrideversioncheck only mentioned inline in text in the last line.
agreed^2 :)
Makefile:2704: *** The /only/ supported starting compiler is 2.6.2. You are
trying to build with 2.7.1. You CANNOT do this! See this FAQ:
