gnupg

[Ken Stallings]

I need to install gnupg on an hp-ux 11.11 server. I have downloaded gnupg-1.2.5 but I can not complete the make. It hangs at:

gmake[2]: Entering directory `/var/tmp/ken/gnupg-1.2.3/checks'

Can anyone please help me?
Thanks in advance.

Hi Ken,

This thread:

http://forums1.itrc.hp.com/service/forums/questionanswer.do?threadId=678619

was recently posted with what looks like a similar problem to yours; at least the make is stopping at the same spot. According to that thread his problem turned out to be related to the version of Perl on his system.

Do you know which version of Perl you have installed, and have you tried a newer version of Perl to see if it affects the make problem?

Regards,

Dave

Dave, I have perl 5.8.5 installed on this box. I did not install perl on this box so I will look into installing perl myself to see if this resolves the problem.
