Hello, I am getting some errors when I try to install a program and I am not sure what is happening as I am rather new to linux. I use the command 'make'and get alot of output and then this: -------------------- gcc -I../.. -I../../kernel/sources -g -O -c symtab.c symtab.c: In function 'st_init': symtab.c:260: 'MAXFLOAT' undeclared (first use in this function) symtab.c:260:(each undeclared identifier is reported only once for each function it appears in.) make[1]: *** symtab.o Error 1 make[1]: Leaving directory '/root/SNNSv4.2/tools/sources' make: *** [compile-tools] Error 2 ------------------ Now someone correct me if I am wrong about this. Here is what I think is happening. I am guessing that when I run the 'make' command that this causes a bunch of files to compile just like you would need to in windows. So that would mean that the 'gcc .... symtab.c' line at the top is where the 'GNU c compiler' is trying to compile the symtab.c file. It, however, found an error in this file in the st_init() function that caused it to stop compiling (the error being an instance of an undeclared variable called MAXFLOAT)? Is this correct, and how do I fix such a problem? I can't seem to find the file symtab.c or many of the other files that compile before it without probelmbs. Where are those files (I looked in ../kernel/sources)?

Ok, so I found the file I think (there was another version of the file in /root/bison-1.34/src/sources/symtab.c but I think the one I want is in /root/SNNSv4.2/tools/source/symtab.c). And it apears to make a refference to the variable MAXFLOAT without declaring an instance of that variable (which is a variable defined in ). It does not say anything in symtab.c about what the value of MAXFLOAT should be or what it is used for so I do not have a clue where to go from here. Any ideas?

MAXFLOAT is a variable defined in (math.h). They don't allow you to post carrots in here.
