[ILUG] Help with Make

[Walter Faleiro]

Hi,
I am trying to compile a gnu make.

I have modified the Makefile to have prefix as /tmp/local, so that
destination files are dumped here. But I am still getting some errors listed
below

Making install in glob
Making install in i18n
files='de.mo es.mo fr.mo ko.mo nl.mo pl.mo ru.mo'; \
for file in $files; do \
  base=`basename $file`; \
  langdir=/usr/local/share/locale/`echo $base | sed
's/\.mo$//'`/LC_MESSAGES; \
  /bin/sh ../mkinstalldirs $langdir; \
  echo " .././install-sh -c -m 644 ./$file $langdir/make.mo"; \
  .././install-sh -c -m 644 ./$file $langdir/make.mo; \
done
 .././install-sh -c -m 644 ./de.mo
/usr/local/share/locale/de/LC_MESSAGES/make.mo
cp: cannot create /usr/local/share/locale/de/LC_MESSAGES/#inst.6740#:
Read-only file system
*** Error code 2
make: Fatal error: Command failed for target `install-data-local'
Current working directory /tmp/make/make-3.79/i18n
*** Error code 1
make: Fatal error: Command failed for target `install-am'
Current working directory /tmp/make/make-3.79/i18n
*** Error code 1
make: Fatal error: Command failed for target `install-recursive'


The first error is because /usr/local is a nfs mount, and the currnet host
has not write permissions to it. How can I change the install-sh -c -m 644
./de.mo to write to /tmp/local instead of /usr/local

also how to clear off the other two errors

Appreciate your help
