Thanks Jeremy - Yes I switched to Firefox which didn't get confused with the double
extensions like explorer does but the problem was the same.
In the end took the *.zip version - transferred to Unix & changed the eol markers.
So I really don't know what the problem was unfortunately.
Anyway - I eventually got it built on Tru64 - for others ref. I did the following...
Needed to install the zlib stuff first.
$ cd extracrdir/zlib
$ configure
$ make
$ make install
then needed to reference the zlib stuff..
export CC="cc -std1 -I/usr/local/include"
export CXX="cxx -I/usr/local/include"
then configure rest all other stuff
$ cd extracrdir
$ configure
$ make
then during make install got the following error.
subversion/svnversion/svnsync.1 does not exist.
*** Exit 1
Stop.
copying subversion/svnsync/svnsync.1 to subversion/svnversion/ fixes this problem
then
$ make install again & everything worked.
Hope that helps someone.
