Re: [Swarm-Support] Trouble with installing Swarm-2.2

[Paul Johnson]

I don't know what operating system you are using, so I just can't tell 
you what to do.

Don't ever do "make" as root.  Only be root as long as you need to, and 
only for "make install" if absolutely necessary, but maybe not even 
then.  Install packages someplace else safe if you are doing "make 
install"  There is a danger that you have done some unsolveable damage 
by building and doing "make install" as root and writing stuff all over 
/usr.  It may be  you have to start with a clean system in order to get 
it put back correctly.

Oh, I can say for sure you are wrong to build swarm the way you are and 
the SwarmFaq tells how you ought to do it.

Also, "make clean" won't work because it does not fix the failed 
configure. You should be save and delete the src dir and start fresh, 
but at bare minimum you need "make distclean" (and that does not always 
solve the problem).

The blt problem you have may be because blt2.4 changed the name of one 
file and you can compensate for that by making a symbolic link.

like this

ln -sf %{_libdir}/blt2.4/graph.tcl %{_libdir}/blt2.4/bltGraph.tcl


I have not had success building with jdk1.5, so you may want to forget 
about that for a while.

Next time you ask, please give us the complete output of the configure 
statements and all the commands you typed up to that point.

If you are a linux system, there should be pre-build packages for most 
of these things you are installing.
