Dear all, When I try to install glib-2.8.0 on a UNIX workstation, all the installation steps run properly except the last one: make install. The error message is as follows: make install-recursive Making install in . /bin/bash ./mkinstalldirs /usr/local/bin ./install-sh -c glib-gettextize /usr/local/bin/glib-gettextize cp: cannot create /usr/local/bin/_inst.17461_: Read-only file system *** Error code 2 make: Fatal error: Command failed for target `install-binSCRIPTS' Current working directory /home/vlsi7/staff/sperfox/FBAR/glib-2.8.0 *** Error code 1 make: Fatal error: Command failed for target `install-am' Current working directory /home/vlsi7/staff/sperfox/FBAR/glib-2.8.0 *** Error code 1 make: Fatal error: Command failed for target `install-recursive' Current working directory /home/vlsi7/staff/sperfox/FBAR/glib-2.8.0 *** Error code 1 make: Fatal error: Command failed for target `install' Can some one tell me what the wrong is? Thank you. Best regards, HU Li(Harry Hu) PG Student, Dept.of EEE HKUST _______________________________________________ gtk-list@xxxxxxxxx http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/gtk-list
