I've been having trouble compiling gzip-1.0.3 under Linux...
I've got the latest HJ Lu distribution (root/base/gcc/lib-disks).

I run the configure script, and everything seems to go all right, until it
tries to execute the config.status script which it has created. That gives
the first error I see:

discus:: command not found (My `hostname` is discus.)

But it creates a Makefile anyway... So I "make", and after compiling all
of the stuff it comes back to me at the end with a linker error saying

ld: No such file or directory for libg

What gives?
