Installing R1.6.0 on Solaris 5.6
This works for me on Solaris 2.7 (and I guess you mean Solaris 2.6 aka
SunOS 5.6). With those compilers, the .d file is almost empty. Check
Makeconf and etc/Makeconf contain the rule
.c.d:
@echo > $@
If they do, the problem is likely to be your make. The R-admin manual
does say that GNU make is needed (rather than Sun make) in some
circumstances in Solaris 2.x, x < 7. So you could try GNU make.
Unfortunately Solaris 2.6 is now a rather old version, and we can't be
expected to check on it. My sysadmins say it is impossible to keep secure
these days.
