make install error

make install error

[kap4lin]

Hi,

(Kindly Cc me, I am not subscribed)

Process followed:
$ make configure
$ ./configure --prefix=/scratch/kap4lin/usr
$ make all
$ make install

The make install step is giving the following error:

make -C templates DESTDIR='' install
make[1]: Entering directory `/scratch/kap4lin/softwares/git-1.6.6.1/templates'
install -d -m 755 '/scratch/kap4lin/usr/share/git-core/templates'
(cd blt && gtar cf - .) | \
        (cd '/scratch/kap4lin/usr/share/git-core/templates' && umask
022 && gtar xof -)
gtar: This does not look like a tar archive
gtar: Skipping to next header
gtar: Archive contains obsolescent base-64 headers
gtar: Error exit delayed from previous errors
make[1]: *** [install] Error 2
make[1]: Leaving directory `/scratch/kap4lin/softwares/git-1.6.6.1/templates'
make: *** [install] Error 2

Any help?

Perhaps "unset CDPATH".

Also look for "export CDPATH" in your .bash_profile and remove it (and
either remove CDPATH=... from your .bashrc or make it conditional only to
interactive sessions).  Setting CDPATH for non-interactive sessions does
not make any sense and asking for troubles.

BTW, will "cd ./blt &>/dev/null" also help and prevent this problem from
happening ever again?

Except that (1) it would be ">/dev/null", and (2) why contaminate Makefile
command lines with such unreadability to work around stupid misdesign of
CDPATH?

I _could_ live with something like this that won't affect the main part of
the Makefile, though.

Thanks. This solved the issue. I'll make a note of this in future.

Where did those modules get installed to?

Looking at how my Fedora 20 system appears to do this, I _guess_ (one of
the programs called by) /sbin/installkernel is looking for these modules
(and/or symbols) in /lib/modules/3.18.0-rc6+, but can't find what it
needs.

Does /lib/modules/3.18.0-rc6+ look comparable to what your system
currently has in /lib/modules/2.6.32-431.el6.x86_64?

Hope this helps,

2.make
3.make modules
4.make modules_install
5.make install

all steps upto 4 gave successful output but the fifth step is giving
eror.that error is
