[smokeyhallow]

Prerequisites

Please answer the following questions for yourself before submitting an issue.

• I am running the latest code. Development is very rapid so there are no tagged versions as of now.
• I carefully followed the README.md.
• I searched using keywords relevant to my issue to make sure that I am creating a new issue that is not already open (or closed).
• I reviewed the Discussions, and have a new bug or useful enhancement to share.

Expected Behavior

make should compile.

Current Behavior

make the second step after cloning the repo printed the help rather than "making".

@smokeyhallow good first effort at a description. Please copy/paste from your terminal every step you did from cloning the repo until the make.

[smokeyhallow]

I got stuck exactly at the second step. There is no other steps!

I followed the README's Usage section:

# exact steps from README
git clone https://github.com/ggerganov/llama.cpp
cd llama.cpp
make

RESULT: <help from make>

[smokeyhallow]

But interestingly gpt4all worked for me! So, my system resources/requirements isn't the issue! Also, I am using conda if that helps

I guess you are not using gnu's make util.
make --version should give value around 4.3, something similar to this.

GNU Make 4.3 Built for x86_64-pc-linux-gnu

Exactly!!! I am not using it, but it wasn't mentioned anywhere!!! Let me try this!

[smokeyhallow]

Oh wow! I found the solution after days of scratching of my head!

My make was pointing to some other executable put in the path by volta.sh!!! Such a shit show! I don't know why they do it! Just used absolute path to the executable and it worked!!!

It is one of the dangers of programming in JS.
