I just tried GNU make, and it deals with the error and continues to perform the installation. If you fix the for loop in the refman Makefile that might solve the problem. I'll let you know how well this release works with 5.8.

Where the Makefile says "for d in 1 5 8" it should say "for d in 1 8". It looks like there will have to be a 1.44 release. :-( > > All the uprint man pages are missing from docs/refman, should they be copied > over or is make supposed to handle that?
