by Dear Readers,
Can any of you get Gnu Common Lisp to compile on a Linux system? I'm trying to
compile GCL version 2.1 on a 486-based Linux system, running kernel version
1.2.13, using the Red Hat release 2.1 of Linux.
For what it's worth, here is what happened when I tried to compile it; at the
end are the contents of the /lib directory. I don't know what else would be
needed to fix GCL and make it go.
I love Linux and the Gnu people, but I'm growing gray before my years trying
to compile this program, and I would consider paying someone a modest but
reasonable consulting fee if they can help me get it going.
Many thanks, --Travis Porco
