It checks what you have by trying to execute the command. It apparently didn't find MMK, it didn't find GMAKE, but it found MMS... Which apparently doesn't exist. You should check if you have the symbols MMK or MMS defined to something weird... Please tell me what you find... -- R Levitte, Levitte Programming; Spannv. 38, I; S-161 43 Bromma; SWEDEN Tel: +46-8-26 52 47; Cel: +46-10-222 64 05; No fax right now PGP key fingerprint = A6 96 C0 34 3A 96 AA 6C B0 D5 9A DF D2 E9 9C 65 Check http://www.lp.se/~levitte for my public key. bastard@bofh.se ================================================================================ Archive-Date: Thu, 01 May 1997 17:23:11 +0200 Sender: owner-emacs-testers@lp.se Message-ID: To: "VMS EMACS Testers" MIME-Version: 1.0 From: "Mark Beckman" Reply-To: emacs-testers@LISTS.VMS.GNU.AI.MIT.EDU Subject: Re: Building Emacs on VMS V5.5-2H4 Date: Thu, 01 May 97 08:24:27 pdt Content-Type: text/plain; charset="ISO-8859-1"; X-MAPIextension=".TXT" Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit > You should check if you have the symbols MMK or MMS defined to something weird ... Please tell me what you find... Thats it! In my zeal to create a "clean" environment for CONFIGURE I had gotten rid of ALL Process level symbols, MMK and MMS (and GMAKE) are NOT defined in my group or system tables, so CONFIGURE just did the best it could and defaulted to MMS. When I used MMK/ignore=warning that got me through the first DESCRIPT.MMS file but the next on down the line used the default, MMS. When you run configure and your "make" is not MMS be sure that a symble is defined for what ever you use! Thanks,
