Hi

I have been running geant4 successfully in my red-hat 9 PC since last few
months. I could compile and execute all types of examples succesfully.

After a gap of few days, when I am trying to compile (gmake) some examples I
find the following error at the prompt.

geant4.6.2.p01/config/common.gmk:34: *** target pattern contains no `%'.  Stop.

This error occurs for  all the examples I am trying to "gmake".


Kindly suggest a solution.

Please, check that you have your environment properly set (variables
G4INSTALL, G4SYSTEM, ...) before trying using your Geant4 installation.

I don't have enough information for helping you. If your environment
is correctly set and the configuration of your system did not change
in between, there is no reason why the build system should fail.
Check that your source code distribution is the original one and/or not
corrupted. In the worst case you can try rebuilding the libraries from
scratch following the installation instructions.
