Re: ITL install problems

Hi Rolf,

I had exactly the same problem when I tried to compile ITL on the new SuSE 8.2 
with gcc 3.2.2, on previous versions it worked perfectly. In fact, my old 
mail should be somewhere in the archives, but for your convenience, I will 
repeat what I did to get ITL up and running on my system:

- Installed the patch attached to this mail (using the "patch" command with 
some weird parameters I cannot remember right now, see the man pages).

- Used "gmake install" instead of "make install" to get rid of the problems 
with automake.

- Corrected the access permissions of the subdirectories in 
/usr/local/include/itl, which could only be accessed by root after the 
installation.

Afterwards, I was able to compile my old code which used the ITL, but as far 
as I remember, compilation of the examples still didn't work.

Good luck,
Bastian.
