[x264-devel] x264 Install: Cannot Follow Symbolic Link

[Sean McGovern]

OK I think I know what is going on here:

Please ensure that your PATH does not contain /usr/ucb while building. /usr/ucb/install is not the same as POSIX or GNU install.

Maybe you should also read:

man -s 5 standards

Particularly under the "Utilities" heading as it explains how PATH should be properly configured for either XPG3, XPG4, or POSIX.1/SUSv3 behaviour. In all 3 cases, /usr/ucb is not specifically required.

That's strange.  I've pasted it again.

Hopefully this time it works!
