HDF4 Build Problems - UNKNOWN Redefined

[warmerdam]

hi list,

I am trying to make gdal 1.5.3 on linux (Redhat Enteroprise)

I use HDF4.2 r3 and HDF5 1.8.2.

here is the error message:

      libtool: compile:  g++ -g -O2 -Wall -I/home/sgong/dev181/gdal-1.5.3/port -I/home/sgong/dev181/gdal-1.5.3/gcore -I/home/sgong/dev181/gdal-1.5.3/alg -I/home/sgong/dev181/gdal-1.5.3/ogr -I/home/sgong/dev181/gdal-1.5.3/ogr/ogrsf_frmts -I/home/sgong/dev181/dist/include -I/home/sgong/dev181/gdal-1.5.3/ogr -Ihdf-eos -DOGR_ENABLED -I/home/sgong/dev181/gdal-1.5.3/port -I/home/sgong/dev181/dist -I/home/sgong/dev181/dist/include -c hdf4dataset.cpp  -fPIC -DPIC -o ../o/.libs/hdf4dataset.o

      make[1]: Leaving directory `/home/sgong/dev181/gdal-1.5.3/frmts'
      make: *** [frmts-target] Error 2

Should I change the declaration? in which file?

thanks,

Shawn
