Steve, As you suggested I did a ./getsrc and a "make /usr/include/linux" which improved things such that lame would compile. But libmad will not. It gives me the same error as before but for C++: checking how to run the C++ preprocessor... /lib/cpp configure: error: C++ preprocessor "/lib/cpp" fails sanity check sox won't compile either: Making all in src formats.c: In function 'rewind_pipe': formats.c:399: error: 'FILE' has no member named '_IO_read_ptr' formats.c:399: error: 'FILE' has no member named '_IO_read_base' Have any thoughts? Thanks in advance once again :-) -- Tim :wq On Oct 11, 2009, at 4:11 PM, Tim Sawyer wrote: I'm attempting to install sox on my Limey box. When running ./ configure I get: configure: error: in `/root/sox-14.3.0': configure: error: C preprocessor "/lib/cpp" fails sanity check I got a similar message when attempting to compile Asterisk. There is supposed to be a development environment on Limey, correct? Any ideas what's up here? -- Tim :wq _______________________________________________ App_rpt-users mailing list App_rpt-users@qrvc.com http://qrvc.com/mailman/listinfo/app_rpt-users
