I am trying to compile gdal as per the instructions of the developer of specialized remote sensing software called gamma (<a href="http://www.gamma-rs.ch/" target="_blank">http://www.gamma-rs.ch/</a>). The platform is a Dell T410 dual Xeon processor system with 8GB of memory, running Redhat Enterprise Linux (RHEL 5.4 x86_64). The configure goes smoothly, but on the make I am getting the error on the subject line and the make fails. The configure instructions are very specific from gamma:<br>
<br>
./configure --without-python --without-php --without-ruby --without-perl --without-jasper \<br>
--without-curl --without-odbc --with-png=internal --with-libtiff=internal --with-libgeotiff=internal \<br>
--with-jpeg=internal --with-sqlite=no --with-libz=internal --without-cfitsio --with-gif=internal --without-netcdf \<br>
--without-pg --without-hdf4 --without-hdf5 --without-geos --enable-shared --prefix=/usr/local/gdal<br>
<br>
the last few lines on the failed make are:<br>
