Metamail for Solaris 10

Hi All,

We are trying to Load Metamail on our Solaris 10 Server but are not able to.

This is what we get:
m5k604d1@root# pwd
/export/home/xpvh76/mm2.7/src

m5k604d1@root# /usr/ccs/bin/make
(cd metamail ; make CONFIGDIR=../. CFLAGS="-g -I. " CC="cc" LDLIBS="")
sh: make: not found
*** Error code 1
make: Fatal error: Command failed for target `basics'

We have tried following to install the metamail software.

The source code available its self is throwing errors when it is being compiled. The steps we tried to trouble shoot this are given here.

1) PATH and LIBRARY_PATH variables were set accordingly.

2) The newest gcc version available was installed . Tried to compile with that. No luck.

3) Latest egcs version was installed and tried to compile . Didn't succeed.

4)All required library packages where installed as per the error logs which was thrown. Made necessary modifications to Makefile to include the new gcc

compiler and environment variables. Still not luck.

5) Tested with and without the gcc compiler.

Please Help!!!

patchmedia

patchmedia(1M)						  System Administration Commands					    patchmedia(1M)

NAME

       patchmedia - modify Solaris media with patches and packages

SYNOPSIS

       /usr/bin/patchmedia  -d media-root [-v] [-o iso] [-l label]
	    pkg_or_patch [pkg_or_patch ...]

DESCRIPTION

       The  patchmedia utility takes a list of patches and packages as input and updates the install miniroot in media-root (the root directory of
       an on-disk image of a Solaris installation media) to include the specified patches and packages. These patches and packages are also placed
       in a subdirectory called DU under the Solaris install image. For example:

	 media-root/Solaris_10/DU

       When  booting a system from the updated media, the patches and packages will be part of the booted Solaris image. They will also be applied
       to the target system being installed at the end of the installation process.

       If -o is specified, a bootable ISO image is created in the file media.iso that contains the Solaris install media. The ISO image  can  then
       be burned onto a CD/DVD with utilities such as cdrw(1) or cdrecord(1). (The latter is not a SunOS man page.)

OPTIONS

       The following options are supported:

       -d media-root

	   Top-level directory of on-disk image of Solaris installation media. This is option must be specified.

       -o iso

	   Create a Solaris ISO image of media-root.

       -l label

	   Label/volume name of the ISO image (if -o option is specified). If -o is not specified, the name of Solaris directory under media-root,
	   for example, Solaris_10, will be used.

       -v

	   Verbose. Multiple -v options increase verbosity.

OPERANDS

       The following operands are supported:

       pkg_or_patch [pkg_or_patch ...]

	   One or more patches or packages (you can have both patches and packages in a single command) with which the Solaris installation  media
	   media-root will be updated.

EXAMPLES

       Example 1 Updating a Solaris Install Image with Patch and Package

       The following command updates the Solaris install image in s10u1 by adding patch 123456-07 and package SUNWfoo.

	 # /usr/bin/patchmedia -d s10u1 SUNWfoo 123456-07
