Not sure what the source catalog is?? from /hobbit-4.2.0 folder don-bsd# ./configure Configuration script for Hobbit This script asks a few questions and builds a Makefile to compile Hobbit Checking your make-utility GNU make is required to build Hobbit. If it is available as "gmake", run configure as: 'MAKE=gmake ./configure.server' don-bsd# I can see that this message is from the file "configure.server". Snip of code below. {snip from configure.server file} echo "Checking your make-utility" MAKEVER=`$MAKE -version 2>&1 | head -n 1 | awk '{print $1 " " $2}'` if test "$MAKEVER" != "GNU Make" then echo "GNU make is required to build Hobbit." echo "If it is available as \"gmake\", run configure as: 'MAKE=gmake $0'" exit 1 fi echo "Checking pre-requisites for building Hobbit" echo "" . build/fping.sh echo ""; echo "" . build/rrd.sh echo ""; echo "" . build/pcre.sh echo ""; echo "" {...end-snip} But seems to bail right after the echo "If it is available as \"gmake\"...
