make command failure
Hi
After downloading and compiling new ntp source for Solaris 10 I used the make command on the ntp directory.
I received the following output:

bash-3.00# make
(bk version) >/dev/null 2>&1 && \
cd . && \
x=`bk -R prs -hr+ -nd:I: ChangeSet` && \
y=`cat version 2>/dev/null` || true && \
case "$x" in ''|$y) ;; *) echo $x > version ;; esac
make all-recursive
Making all in libopts
/bin/bash ../libtool --tag=CC --mode=link gcc -g -O2 -Wall -Wcast-qual -Wmissing-prototypes -Wpointer-arith -Wshadow -Wstrict-prototypes -L/usr/sfw/lib -R/usr/sfw/lib -o libopts.la -version-info 29:0:4 libopts_la-libopts.lo -lkvm -lelf -lxnet -lsocket -lrt -lmd5 -lnsl -lgen
libtool: link: warning: `-version-info/-version-number' is ignored for convenience libraries
false cru .libs/libopts.a libopts_la-libopts.o
*** Error code 1
make: Fatal error: Command failed for target `libopts.la'
Current working directory /opt/ntp-4.2.4p6/libopts
*** Error code 1
The following command caused the error:
failcom='exit 1'; \
for f in x $MAKEFLAGS; do \
case $f in \
*=* | --[!k]*);; \
*k*) failcom='fail=yes';; \
esac; \
done; \
dot_seen=no; \
target=`echo all-recursive | sed s/-recursive//`; \
list='libopts scripts include ElectricFence libntp libparse ntpd ntpdate ntpdc ntpq parseutil adjtimed clockstuff kernel sntp util '; for subdir in $list; do \
echo "Making $target in $subdir"; \
if test "$subdir" = "."; then \
dot_seen=yes; \
local_target="$target-am"; \
else \
local_target="$target"; \
fi; \
(cd $subdir && make $local_target) \
|| eval $failcom; \
done; \
if test "$dot_seen" = "no"; then \
make "$target-am" || exit 1; \
fi; test -z "$fail"
make: Fatal error: Command failed for target `all-recursive'
Current working directory /opt/ntp-4.2.4p6
*** Error code 1
make: Fatal error: Command failed for target `all'
bash-3.00# make: Fatal error: Command failed for target `all-recursive'
Does anyone know what to do ?

Thanks
Shai

try using GNU make. download at sunfreeware.com and make sure the GNU make path is before /usr/ccs/bin/make in $PATH. obviously run `which make` so that you can verify which make is being used.

There should be gmake installed already in /usr/sfw/bin.
