Hi,
I am new to this compiling open source packages. Can anybody tell me what could
be the problem for the following error.
I am trying to build/install wine onto my mac, leopard.
Code:
config.status: creating tools/wrc/Makefile
../../tools/makedep -C. -S../.. -T../.. dumpres.c genres.c newstruc.c
readres.c translation.c utils.c wrc.c writeres.c parser.y parser.l
./tools/makedep -C. -S. -T.
make[1]: `makedep' is up to date.
gcc -m32 -c -I. -I. -I../../include -I../../include -D__WINESRC__ -D_REENTRANT
-fPIC -Wall -pipe -fno-strict-aliasing -Wdeclaration-after-statement
-Wstrict-prototypes -Wwrite-strings -Wpointer-arith -g -O2 -o ffs.o ffs.c
{standard input}:unknown:FATAL:can't create output file: ffs.o
make[1]: *** [ffs.o] Error 1
make: *** [libs/port] Error 2
Regards

There is wineskin, Mike Kronenberg's WineBottler and other builds available on the Internet for Intel Mac's running Leopard and Snow Leopard. If you are running Leopard on a Power PC Mac, there are NO known builds that will run Windows programs on this platform. However, someone else can chime in and please correct me. James McKenzie
