Hi. I really can't get make install to work. First of all, the compilation chokes on libtool trying to run /usr/linux-suse-i686/bin/ld (or something similar anyway), which is of course completely wrong on a solaris machine. Yes, I did run ./configure...

Anyway... replacing this with simply ld lets me compile the thing. It then doesn't find /usr/bin/install, which is hardly surprising:

> whereis install
install: /etc/install /usr/sbin/install /usr/sbin/install.d /usr/ucb/install
>

Once again, I let the system choose for itself by replacing this by simply install. The thing that made me give up was:

> install -c .libs/libcppunit-1.5.so.5.0.0 /home/diameter/SunOS_sun4u/lib/libcppunit-1.5.so.5.0.0
cp: cannot access /home/diameter/SunOS_sun4u/lib/libcppunit-1.5.so.5.0.0
install: cp /home/diameter/SunOS_sun4u/lib/libcppunit-1.5.so.5.0.0 .libs/libcppunit-1.5.so.5.0.0/libcppunit-1.5.so.5.0.0 failed

> cp .libs/libcppunit-1.5.so.5.0.0 /home/diameter/SunOS_sun4u/lib/libcppunit-1.5.so.5.0.0
>

Note the lack of errors when performing the copy by hand.

Just to give you some idea of what were working with:
