}Is there more to the error message than ".....: no such file or directory" ?

Now I don't expect any comments about the partition names. They are
just something you learn to live with. I am pushing for an andrew
partition but I have to get it built and installed first.

I handmade the doc subdirectory and tried dependInstall again. This
time it installed Imakemacros.d but failed on the next one.

install -c -m 0444 config/andyenv.h /sunsrc/andrew_dir/include/andyenv.h
install: /sunsrc/andrew_dir/include/andyenv.h: No such file or directory
*** Error code 1

}Perhaps the top-level destination directory does not exist ? (i.e.
}DESTDIR = /foo/bar/baz, and /foo/bar does not exist)

As you can see above /sunsrc/andrew_dir does indeed exist.

Also permissions should not be causing a problem since I was
building Andrew as "root".
