Help! Compiling Erlang 49 (otp_src_R6B-0) on Solaris 2.7, no joy

[Jon Holdsworth]

Hello all, I am new to this list

I am compiling Erlang 49 (otp_src_R6B-0), the open source version,
on Solaris 2.7

So far I have not managed to get this to work.

I have searched the archives of this mailing list, enquired of ericsson
people,
and searched the web, to no avail.

Can anybody help, has anybody got this to compile yet ?

== Warning: Your libtcl7.6.a is not yet created in the directory
   /usr/jon/erlang49/otp_src_R6B-0/lib/gs/c_src/lib/tcl7.6/unix, so I
cannot determine this.
   For now I just assume there is standalone support.
   If you get an error later during the build of wish.standalone,
   then first compile Tcl7.6 with standalone support.
