Re: [texhax] skt.c is not compiling (sanskrit for LaTeX2e package)

I don't have a Ubuntu box here, and I get your same
error message (on Arch Linux).

The following seems to avoid it, but could have other effects
of which I am not aware:

gcc -ansi -o skt skt.c

Good luck,

Mark

Subject: [texhax] skt.c is not compiling (sanskrit for LaTeX2e package)

The file "skt.c"  that resides in http://ctan.org/tex-archive/language/sanskrit
(needed to get the executable "skt" that pre-processes the inputs)  is not
compiling in Ubuntu 14.04 and I get the error messages. I am using TeXLive2014,
the executable "skt" is absent there, and we have to compile it (however all the
fonts and other material are present there in TeXLive2015).
When I compile the file "skt.c" in Ubuntu 14.04, using the command
  gcc -o skt skt.c
I get the following error message :

****ERROR MESSAGE*****

*************************                    ^
Without generating the pre-processor "skt", I cannot use this package.
Any help will be appreciated.
