I am trying to compile ethereal with GIOP plugins on a Solaris 9 SPARC machine. I have created the necessary .c files by using the idl2eth.sh script included in the ethereal-0.10.7 distro. I have also edited plugins/giop/Makefile.am and plugins/giop/Makefile.nmake to include the .c files I generated.

Did you do anything to regenerate the plugins/giop/Makefile.in file from the Makefile.am file?

I can run ./configure from the ethereal-0.10.7 and it seems to finish ok. However, when I run ‘make’, I get this error while compiling:

Is that "/usr/bin/make" or "/usr/ccs/bin/make" (I forget what directory has the Sun make in Solaris), or is it GNU make?
