#30 Can't build on modern Linux

[Blake McBride]

I downloaded the source to Grief 3.2.2 onto a current 64-bit Fedora Linux box. I received the following three problems:

1. INSTALL file says use "make". That doesn't work. You must type "make release".
2. "make release" fails with the following error:

3. INSTALL says type "make install" but I get:

$ make install

[blake@i9-tower grief-3.2.2-build23]$ make install
make: *** No rule to make target 'install'. Stop.

shall review, doc; make interface changed allowing debug/release builds

As for Tie/RefHash might solve: https://src.fedoraproject.org/rpms/perl-Tie-RefHash
