[FreeVMS] How to build freevms on my debian squeeze?

[Fausto Saporito]

Hello all,

I think it's better to run envscript instead of myprescript, so we  
have a directory customized to your environment, in my case  
freevms386.iomm

But I have a problem with bliss. The source compiles without problems,  
but the make install fails because TOPDIR env variable is not defined,  
so it tries to install bliss in / cause the configure line is written  
as:

configure [...] --prefix=$TOPDIR/bliss

So where's the TOPDIR definition? Is it missing in make-bliss file?
And it's poiting to freevms root or what?

thanks,
Fausto
