Re: [Gcl-devel] Build issue

Hi Blake,

I hope I understand your situation and questions.

I'm not sure you have to invoke `make clean'
<http://www.gnu.org/software/automake/manual/html_node/Clean.html#Clean>

>From what is said here
<https://www.linuxquestions.org/questions/linux-software-2/what-is-the-difference-between-make-distclean-and-make-clean-284353/>
it appears that `make clean' will delete a lot of what you might want
to keep. Specifically:

"make clean -- will delete almost all files made by ./configure and make
make distclean ( this dose not work on ALL programs but most ) will
remove ALL files made by ./configure and ALL files made by make"

And while I'm not using Mint, the following is reliable for me on Ubuntu 12.4.

First, go to the directory in which you want the git to put things, then:

$ git clone git://git.sv.gnu.org/gcl.git
$ cd gcl
$ git checkout Version_2_6_10pre     ; or git checkout Version_2_6_8,
git checkout Version 2_6_9, etc.
$ cd gcl
$ ./configure --enable-ansi && make


Hope this helps,

_don
