Re: [Gretl-users] Problems to install Gretl 1.7.9

Hello Hebert, The problem is that you must install with superuser permissions. For example by: $ sudo make install (It will ask YOUR password, if you are a user in the sudoer's list) or you can change to root with: $ su (It will ask root password). # make install I see that you have tried with a user root, but the prompt still is a '$' and not a '#'. That is strange, I would say that you have a user named root, but not from group 0 (superadmin). You can also login as root and then cd to /home/hebert/Instaladores/gretl-1.7.9 and issue make install from there. There is also the possibility of making a local install, by using for example: hebert@hebert-desktop:~/Instaladores/gretl-1.7.9$ ./configure --prefix=$HOME Then make install will work. Hope that this help. Bye, Hélio Guilherme Hebert Suarez Cahuana wrote:
