compile problems

[Buz Wilson]

Hi All
Tried to compile the latest version.
Got:
"
ocamlbuild.native poy.native
+ /usr/bin/ocamlc.opt -c -cc mpicc -ccopt -fPIC -ccopt -O3 -ccopt -msse
-I camlpdf-0.3 -I grappa -I plugins -I gz-0.5.7 -I ocamlmpi -o
nodeSig.cmo nodeSig.ml
File "nodeSig.ml", line 1, characters 0-1:
Could not find the .cmi file for interface nodeSig.mli.
Command exited with code 2.
"

To save me some time searching out the meaning of this, what is the
problem exactly? My compile script ran fine on the previous version.
Incidently, here's the simple compile script:
"
svn checkout http://poy4.googlecode.com/svn/trunk/ poy4-read-only
cd poy4-read-only
./configure --enable-mpi --enable-interface=flat CC=mpicc CFLAGS="-O3 -msse"
make
sudo make install
"
It assumes svn mpich ocaml as normal.

Basically you had compiled previous versions of POY in that directory,
and some changes need you to cleanup the old compiled files. The
solution:

make clean

then make again. It should work fine.

best,
