I reported this as a bug on 29 June. It _is_ a bug in GSL and I'm slack in getting around to submitting a patch. If you add '-Wall' to the automake line in the autogen.sh script you will see what the problem is. In summary in the gsl/Makefile.am file the problem is to do with the lines: clean: remove-links distclean: remove-links when they should read: clean-local: remove-links distclean-local: remove-links So, I guess that's the "patch" I should have submitted... :-) This is to do with the changes in automake and IMHO (now I have a better idea why the automake behaviour changed) I think it is a good thing. Cheers, S.
