Peter,
Steps taken so far: Followed the instructions (step 1 and 2) on: http://monetdb.cwi.nl/XQuery/Documentation/Installation/Source/Linux/index.h...
indeed, these instructions do not clearly specify that configuring MonetDB/XQuery requires that (1) MonetDB is installed on your system (2) "--with-monet=<prefix>" and/or "--with-mx=<prefix>/bin/Mx" in case "<prefix>/bin" is not in your PATH, where "<prefix>" is the directory that was specified with "--prefix=<prefix>" when configuring MonetDB (the default for "<prefix>" is "/usr"). We'll update the documentation. Sorry for the inconvenience. Did you try again with these options? Does it work now?
When step 2 complains about Mx, I downloaded Mx software from http://www.nongnu.org/mx/download.html
This is NOT "our" Mx --- well, it actually seems to be some very old version of "our" Mx, but that's another issue ... "our" Mx comes with MonetDB, hence there is no need for extra downloads. Stefan
After unzipping and untarring I run make. Solved some compilation errors (changed varargs.h into stdarg.h) but then make complains about CODE/Mx: command not found. Here I stopped and dropped my question on the list.
