This is probably a very difficult problem to troubleshoot with the information I can practically provide, but I’m hoping someone might be able to at least point me in a possible direction.

I’m trying to install HTK (http://htk.eng.cam.ac.uk/), which, according to this page needs to be installed using gcc 3.4. Their method of implementing backwards compatibility:

#yum install compat-gcc-34-c++ compat-gcc-34

won’t work for me as I’m running Ubuntu (On that note, I take it I can’t simply install YUM and the subsequent package, since it’s an entirely different distro, but if I’m wrong I’d love to hear it).

I instead installed two versions of gcc 3.4 – 3.4.0 and 3.4.6 using instructions from this site. I then added the lines suggested by that page to the top of the makefile (on this note, what’s the difference between makefile and makefile.in? I tried adding the lines to the top of both files regardless), both for version 3.4.0 and 3.4.6, but both failed. I also tried, on the off-chance, compiling it with my current version (4.4.1), but that also failed. I got the errors:

(cd HTKLib && make HTKLib.a) \
      || case "" in *k*) fail=yes;; *) exit 1;; esac;
make[1]: Entering directory `/home/charles/bin/htk-3.4/HTKLib'

    It looks to me that you are missing the X11 development packages.
