[M3devel] failure to cross-install

[Hendrik Boom]

(forgot to change the subject)

(It's possible that the weird directory name had been generated earlier 
when I tried to do the same thing without having emptied LIBRARY_PATH, 
but I definietly specified it for this run.

Look at the top of Makefile and see if it seems reasonable (we should use autoconf here).    run make.     That should give you a working cm3 for the new system.      Put that on path, e.g.:       su        rm -rf /usr/local/cm3       mkdir -p /usr/local/cm3/bin        cp cm3 /usr/local/cm3/bin        exit         PATH=/usr/local/cm3/bin:$PATH     cd to scripts/python in the source tree on the new system.    Then run ./boot2.sh       Then ./make-dist.py.    That should give you the entire system newly built, and a .deb.  If you already have a working cm3 on the system you want to run it on  cd scripts/python   ./upgrade.py    ./make-dist.py     I'd really like to get to the
