Re: [Gretl-users] Installation error on -gretl- 2015d
Okay, after I do this, successfully:
clive@clivubu:~/gretl-git$ sudo git clone ssh://
stonebridgespur(a)git.code.sf.net/p/gretl/git gretl-git
[sudo] password for clive:

I get this:
clive@clivubu:~/gretl-git$ ./configure --prefix=/usr/local
--enable-quiet-build --enable-openmp --enable-build-doc
./configure: line 2338: config.log: Permission denied
./configure: line 2348: config.log: Permission denied
Which is why I have to run:
clive@clivubu:~/gretl-git$ sudo ./configure --prefix=/usr/local
--enable-quiet-build --enable-openmp --enable-build-doc
[...]
Configuration:
Installation path: /usr/local
Use readline library: yes
Use gnuplot for graphs: yes
Use pdflatex for typesetting: yes
Use libgsf for zip/unzip: no
MPFR support: yes
sse2 support for RNG: yes
OpenMP support: yes
MPI support: no
AVX support for arithmetic: yes
Build with GTK version: 2.0
Build gretl documentation: yes
Use Lucida fonts: no
Build message catalogs: yes
Build gretl addons: no
X-12-ARIMA support: yes
TRAMO/SEATS support: yes
libR support: yes
ODBC support: no
JSON parsing support: yes
Experimental audio support: no
Use xdg-utils in installation: if DESTDIR not set
LAPACK libraries:
-llapack -lblas -lgfortran
Now type 'make' to build gretl.
You can also do 'make pdfdocs' to build the PDF documentation.
And then...
clive@clivubu:~/gretl-git$ make
./builddate
Can't write to build.h
Makefile:103: recipe for target 'buildstamp' failed
make: *** [buildstamp] Error 1
I hope that makes things clearer.

Allin,
Okay, thanks for your advice. The only thing is is that I've never built
-gretl- from -git- as I've never needed to. Remember, I was only following
the suggested steps Jack gave me!
