Hi,
I am about to compile GRASS 4.1.5.  I downloaded ll the s5.cpio.Z.* from 
../grass4.1/release/source (16 files).  The readme.5 indicates that the code 
incorporates all fixes through Update 5.


  
>                           GRASS 4.1 Source Code
>                                  Update 5
>
>This directory contains a compressed cpio archive of the GRASS 4.1 source code:
>src, src.alpha, src.contrib, and src.garden.  The code incorporates all fixes
>through Update 5.

  It then indicates how to extract the file 
> cat s5.cpio.Z.* | zcat | (cd [destination]; cpio -icdu)

When I run this command I get the man, src, src.alpha ,src.contrib and 
src.garden directoties. 

I also get update.5.cpio and update.5.sh

Do I need to extract the update file or are these 
files already fixed?  
If so how? 
The update script gives the following error.


*** ERROR ***
Unable to access /usr/local/grass/update.5.dirs.
This file should have come with  Update 5.

Finally any known problems with compliling on solaris 2.5 and gcc2.7.2.2?

Thanks
Joe
