Hi,
I am running on Fedora Core 6 which has gnu make version 3.81. I am trying to install the ncbi tools for blast but it has known problems with make 3.81. Though, the ncbi tools has no problems with make version 3.80.
I have downloaded the make 3.80 rpm but i cant install it cause its an older version.
address@hidden Desktop]# rpm -ivh make-3.80-7.i386.rpm
