Hi, It's looking for m4 binary. If you don't have it already do this: You need to first do this step for m4. <download source, configure, gmake, install etc)
If you are not bothered about fine tuning the build to your environment, you can just download the binary. :) -----Original Message----- From: Laurence Finston [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Wednesday, October 15, 2008 3:43 PM To: Philippe Scelers Cc: help-bison@gnu.org Subject: Re: bison-2.3 - cannot re-locate bison installation On Wed, 15 Oct 2008, Philippe Scelers wrote: > Hi, > Bison store installation path prefix given at configure time, e.g. 'configure > --prefix=/u ; make ; make install' > > I want to copy bison installation into another location, e.g. /usb/u > but unfortunately bison fail with error: /usb/u/bin/bison: cannot open file > '/u/share/bison/m4sugar/m4sugar.m4': No such file or directory > > Is there a way to fix this problem? an environment variable? > Thanks, You can't just copy it. It might work to copy it and then call `configure' again with the correct prefix argument. However, if this doesn't work on the first try, I think it would probably be safest to install a fresh version in the new location. One way of making a fresh version would be to call `make dist' in the old location and copy the `bison-<whatever>.tar.gz' file to the new location, unpack it, etc. Laurence Finston _______________________________________________ help-bison@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/help-bison _______________________________________________ help-bison@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/help-bison
