Valgrid installation problem


Hi,
Can anybody help me to resolve valgrid installation problem.
I took valgrind-3.1.0.tar.tar and I did following steps
1. untar valgrid file
2. cd valgrid directory
3. Give command ./configure
4. Give command gmake
5. Give command gamke_install
Here I am getting the error.

/usr/bin/install -c -m 644 'vki_posixtypes-x86-linux.h' '/usr/local/include/valgrind/vki_posixtypes-x86-linux.h'
/usr/bin/install: cannot remove `/usr/local/include/valgrind/vki_posixtypes-x86-linux.h': Permission denied
gmake[3]: *** [install-incincHEADERS] Error 1
gmake[3]: Leaving directory `/home/rajesh/valgrind-3.1.0/include'
gmake[2]: *** [install-am] Error 2

You must have root privileges to do the "install" part,

Execute

su

Give the root password when it asks.

That means that for the time being you are "superuser" with vastly more privileges than a normal user. (Programs run as "superuser" can write to /usr and /usr/local and just about anywhere else.) Then proceed with the "install" part.

Finally, execute

exit


to become your old "normal" , non-super self again.


Regards,

Dave
