RE: install pspp 0.10.x on lunux

[Will Farmer]

I believe I probably mis-spoke on the difficulty of the document, John.

It really boils down to, as I re-read and look at it, that I didn't have the 
proper pre-requisites installed. I installed the regular install packages, not 
development, and it looks like since my box wasn't really set up for 
development (it was a minimal install with very little added until it was 
necessary), that is probably the root of 95% of my problem.  As soon as I 
installed the devel packages, things have moved right along until I got to my 
next part which is that I need the automake and autoconfig etc. installed. 
Again, I didn't set up any development side items, choosing rather to rely on 
yum to install things regularly. I'm making my way down this road and learning 
what to look for in the future. Fortunately for me, I only need the pspp engine 
and not the graphical interface so I am sure I can power through on it and get 
it done before the weekend.

I really appreciate you jumping in and helping, that is wonderful.

Thanks,

It is supposed to be very simple and very easy to follow.  If it isn't that is 
a bug.

Can you please tell us what you thought was unclear about it?  I'd like to fix 
this.

thanks.
