[CMake] building 2.4.7 on solaris 10

[Seth Grover]

Hi,

I'm trying to build CMake 2.4.7 on Solaris 10. (Before I go on, I am a
total and complete newbie to Solaris, so if it's something stupid I'm
doing, I'm not suprised.

Anyway, I have a new Solaris 10 virtual machine in which I've set up
the standard development tools which I obtained from sunfreeware.com,
like gcc, ncurses, make, etc. Installation of those packages seems to
be correct. I used crle to set my library path to find the .so files
needed in /usr/local/lib.

After doing that, I was able run the bootstrap script as indicated in
the readme. Here's the output.

Okay, so that seems to have worked. Then I tried to run make:

I'm not sure what "Error running link command: No such file or
directory" is trying to tell me. Any help would be greatly
appreciated.

Thanks,
