[Axiom-developer] Compiling AXIOM on SuSE 8.0

[Bertfried Fauser]

Hi,

just to thank you for your help.

-- AXIOM didn't compile on my work computer, as David Mentre suggested due
to a wrong translation of UPPERCASE filenames /net/CliDisk/... ->
/net/clidisk/...

-- AXIOM compiled sucessfully on my home computer (SuSE 8.0, AMD XP1800
(however the compiler did not notice the CPU)) and seems to be fully
functional. (At least it did what I tried in a correct way)

./configure is helpfull, but why not actually setting these variables

make works

make install didn't work (as root) for the following reasons

localhost:/home/fauser/axiom # make install
78 installing Axiom in /usr/local/axiom
cat: /home/fauser/axiom/src/etc/axiomcmd: No such file or directory
make: *** [install] Error 1

may be the directory is missing or wrongly addressed?

thanks for your help again, I can now start to play with the system
:-)))) and will try to in stall TeXmax also.
BF.
