Cygwin installation problem.

[McCraley, Mark TECHNISOURCE INC.]

I am pretty weak in UNIX so maybe I have a misunderstanding. 

 

I am trying to install gmp in Cygwin on a Win-XP machine in the Cygwin bash shell

I ran make "./configure" - and ended up installing packages until it worked.

I ran "make" and it was successful.

I ran "make check" and it reported no errors. 

 

The problem is when I run "make install." 

 

I get this error:

~~~

It looks like two issues to me.  First it does not like the space in "Program Files"  and second for some reason instead of copying over libgmp.la to /usr/local/lib,  it is looking for a /usr/local/lib/libgmp.la/ directory.

 

Does anyone know what I can do to fix these problems?  Is there some setting I need to add to an install script?

 

Thanks,
