Re: syntax error running configure

Hello,  I downloaded the dar-2.6.8.tar.gz from ftp.dm3c.org and ran configure and then make.  I got the below result.  The build was successful.

Thanks, Ken

A typical set of g++ lines during make:

depbase=`echo terminateur.lo | sed 's|[^/]*$|.deps/&|;s|\.lo$||'`;\
/bin/sh ../../libtool  --tag=CXX   --mode=compile g++ -DHAVE_CONFIG_H -I. -I../..  -DLIBDAR_MODE=64 -DDAR_LOCALEDIR=\"/usr/local/share/locale\"        -g ->
mv -f $depbase.Tpo $depbase.Plo
libtool: compile:  g++ -DHAVE_CONFIG_H -I. -I../.. -DLIBDAR_MODE=64 -DDAR_LOCALEDIR=\"/usr/local/share/locale\" -g -O2 -MT terminateur.lo -MD -MP -MF .deps>
