From the build.log: The following settings are used: platform unix compiler cc configuration directory ./builds/unix configuration rules ./builds/unix/unix.mk If this does not correspond to your system or settings please remove the file `config.mk' from this directory then read the INSTALL file for help. Otherwise, simply type `make' again to build the library, or `make refdoc' to build the API reference (the latter needs python). make: Nothing to be done for `unix'. config.mk:25: /unix-def.mk: No such file or directory config.mk:26: /unix-cc.mk: No such file or directory make: *** No rule to make target `/unix-cc.mk'. Stop. Note that the missing files do exist, but they are not in the root directory. The file builds/unix/unix.mk has the lines: have_mk := $(strip $(wildcard $(BUILD_DIR)/unix-def.mk)) ifneq ($(have_mk),) include $(BUILD_DIR)/unix-def.mk include $(BUILD_DIR)/unix-cc.mk else # we are building FT2 not in the src tree include $(OBJ_DIR)/unix-def.mk include $(OBJ_DIR)/unix-cc.mk endif Which suggests that either $(BUILD_DIR) or $(OBJ_DIR) are not being set. The same problem was reported in bug 58984 but went away without explanation.
