Well, normally I run my makes with a little function called Make:
Make ()
{
if [ "${MAKE}" = "" ]; then
MAKE=make
fi
xtset `uname -n|sed 's:\..*$::'`:`pwd`: Make "$* "`date`
(echo '=====' `date`: Make $*; /usr/bin/time -l ${MAKE} 2>&1 $*) | tee -a Make.log
cd .
}
This doesn't interoperate well with interactive ports which display
menus: they don't interpret function keys correctly. So I have to do:
# make configure
# Make install
Apart from that, and the missing skins, I had no difficulties. What
have you seen?
Greg
