[daip] AIPS installation

[Eric Greisen]

You seem to have dug a hole for yourself somehow.  The XAS make that
you sent indicates that the architecture is not known and so a
meaningless compiler (called c) has been selected.

I could not tell from what I read of your message whether you are
attempting the make outside of install.pl or inside.  If the former, 

cd $AIPS_ROOT
source LOGIN.CSH    (if using C shell or tcsh)
. LOGIN.SH          (if bash...)
$CDTST
cd $YSERV/XAS
make

The sourcing and CDTST will make sure that your architecture is
known.


If the latter, then there is a deeper problem:

install.pl  does that source ahead of the make.  This means that
LOGIN.CSH determines a computer name which is not found in HOSTS.LIST
and so the architecture is not known "outside" of install.pl although
it is known inside.  This problem could come from editing LOGIN.CSH
and LOGIN.SH to set LAPTOP to YES more or less without help from
install.pl - but that should not occur these days (I fixed install.pl
a while back to do a LAPTOP issues itself).  If we are in this second
case, I am not sure I can help you without an awful lot more
information.  One way would be for me to log in to your machine to see
what is going on...
