Make giving error after configuring a package
Hi,
I have installed gmake 3.82 in my aix 5.3 system.
but while installing a package,after doing./configure ,i give gmake and its throwing below error.

Code:
# gmake
"build/Makefile.rules", line 13: make: 1254-055 Dependency line needs colon or double colon operator.

also the command is not working
#
Code:
 gmake --version
gmake: Not a recognized flag: -
usage: make [-einqrst] [-k|-S] [-d[A|adg[1|2]mstv]] [-D variable] [-f makefile ]

but i can see it installed in /usr/bin ,where 1st is ibm compliler make and 2nd is gnu make.

-
Code:
r-xr-xr-x    1 root     system       106350 Apr 21 09:45 make
-r-xr-xr-x    1 root     system       106350 Apr 21 09:47 gmake
