Hi.

I am trying to install the latest CVS samba onto 
a Solaris 2.6 box and downloaded it with the following command:

cvs -d :pserver:cvs at cvs.samba.org:/cvsroot co samba

I then successfully ran:

./configure --prefix=/usr/local/samba-cvs

but when I did a "make" I received the following error
message:

hostname: /p0/src/samba-cvs-102899/source # make
make: Fatal error in reader: Makefile, line 374: Macro assignment on
dependency line 

This is line 374 of the Makefile:

# this is for IRIX
.c.po32: # .deps/.dummy
        @if (: >> $@ || : > $@) >/dev/null 2>&1; then rm -f $@; else \
          dir=`echo $@ | sed 's,/[^/]*$$,,;s,^$$,.,'` $(MAKEDIR); fi
#       @if (: >> .deps/$@ || : > .deps/$@) >/dev/null 2>&1; then :; \
Line 374 #        else dir=.deps/`echo $@ | sed 's,/[^/]*$$,,;s,^$$,.,'` \
#             $(MAKEDIR); fi; rm -f .deps/$@ .deps/$@d
        @echo Compiling $*.c with -fpic and -32
        @$(CC) -32 -I. -I$(srcdir) $(FLAGS) -fpic -c $< \
          -o $*.po32.o # -Wp,-MD,.deps/$@
#       @sed 's|^'`echo $*.po32.o | sed 's,.*/,,'`':|$@:|' \
#         <.deps/$@ >.deps/$@d && \
#       rm -f .deps/$@ && : >.deps/.stamp
        @mv $*.po32.o $@

Any ideas as to what might be wrong?  Is there
a better way to download the CVS code?

Thanks,

Melissa
