[GRASS5] Solaris, GRASS 5.1, and Proj

[Wallace, Beverly T]

Thanks for the advice.  I've installed PROJ 4.4.7.

I ran "make distclean" and configured both 50 and 51 for the external PROJ.  
There were no problems making 50.

But I have trouble making lib/proj in 51.  I'm using GNU make.

It fails with the following message:
	gcc  
	-L/sim/home1/Grass/grass5.1/grass51_exp_2003_09_06/dist.sparc-sun-solaris2.9/lib

	nad', needed by `default'.  Stop.
	make[2]: Leaving directory 
	`/sim/home1/Grass/grass5.1/grass51_exp_2003_09_06/lib/proj'
	make[1]: *** [subdirs] Error 1
Note, the $(GISBASE)/etc/nad directory does not yet exist.  If I create etc/nad, "make" does nothing and leaves the directory empty.

The Makefile looks like:
	MODULE_TOPDIR = ../..

	LIB_NAME = $(GPROJ_LIBNAME)

	EXTRA_CFLAGS = $(PICFLAGS)
	EXTRA_INC = $(PROJINC)

	LIB_OBJS = get_proj.o do_proj.o convert.o datum.o ellipse.o

	NAD_TABLES = FL.lla MD.lla TN.lla WI.lla WO.lla alaska.lla conus.lla \
	             hawaii.lla prvi.lla stgeorge.lla stlrnc.lla stpaul.lla

	NT_TABLES = ntv1_can.dat nzgd2kgrid0005.gsb

	$(NAD2BIN): nad2bin.o
		$(CC) $(LDFLAGS) $? -o $@

	$(NAD_DIR): $(NAD_TABLES) $(NT_TABLES) $(NAD2BIN)
		@ if [ ! -d $@ ] ; then mkdir $@ ; fi
		for i in $(NAD_TABLES) ; do $(NAD2BIN) < $$i $@/`echo $$i | sed 
	's/.lla//'`; done
		cp -f $(NT_TABLES) $@
		@ touch $@

	NAD_DIR = $(GISBASE)/etc/nad

	include $(MODULE_TOPDIR)/include/Make/Lib.make 

	default: lib $(NAD_DIR)

If I modify the Makefile to move the "NAD_DIR =" line after the "NT_TABLE=" line, I get a different error message:
	mkdir: Failed to make directory "/etc/nad"; Permission denied
	make: *** [/etc/nad] Error 2
It seems to have lost $(GISBASE).

If I also change $@ to $(NAD_DIR) in the $(NAD_DIR) target, the error messages are:
	wallace<640> make
	for i in FL.lla MD.lla TN.lla WI.lla WO.lla alaska.lla conus.lla hawaii.lla 
	prvi.lla stgeorge.lla stlrnc.lla stpaul.lla ; do  < $i

	ad/`echo $i | sed 's/.lla//'`; done
	/bin/sh:

	make: *** [/etc/nad] Error 1

Does anyone know what the problem could be?
