[Asterisk-Users] make of asterisk doesn't do anything...

[Alistair Cunningham]

Michael,

Someone may know a simple fix. If not, can you please install the 
'strace' program, then run:

strace -f -o /tmp/strace.out make

This will run make, and log any system calls it makes to 
/tmp/strace.out. When it hangs, take a look in that file. It may have 
stopped on one system call, such as select() or poll(), or it may be 
scrolling endlessly, repeating the same system calls over and over 
again. If grep is using a lot of processor time, it's probably the 
latter. Either way, please paste the last 20 or lines into an email, and 
post it to this mailing list.
