R help - Nov 1998 - Install problems.

Hi,

I am having trouble installing R on a Solaris 2.5.1 machine. After running
the configure script, I run make, which quickly results in the following:

make: Fatal error: Don't know how to make target `src/*/*.[chfy]'

Please can you help? 

thanks,

Niall.

Solaris make doesn't work with the R Makefile. You need to get GNU make,
(but *not* version 3.77, which has a bug).
