Apologies in advance..  I’m not experienced at installing SW packages
   and I could not find anything in the FAQs about this…
     
   I’m trying to install git and I have run the following steps:
     
   make configure
   ./configure --prefix=/p/tools/git
   make all
   make install
     
     
   Everything works OK up until the “make install” step at which point I get the following error:
     
     
   ... stuff deleted
     
   install -d -m755 '/p/nhm/rtl/tools/git/share//git-gui/lib'
   install -m644 lib/tclIndex '/p/nhm/rtl/tools/git/share//git-gui/lib'
   install: cannot stat `lib/tclIndex': No such file or directory
   make[1]: *** [install] Error 1
   make[1]: Leaving directory `/nfs/site/disks/nhm.work.658/testing/git/git-gui'
   make: *** [install] Error 2
     
     
   =======
     
   Note: it works OK if I don’t try to install the gui.. and I have been able to setup
   a git repo and I ran through the git tutorial (no gui required).
