## 2.8.1 If SDCC does not build correctly

A thing to try is starting from scratch by unpacking the .tgz source package again in an empty directory. Configure it like:
./configure 2>&1 | tee configure.log
and build it like:
make 2>&1 | tee make.log
If anything goes wrong, you can review the log files to locate the problem. Or a relevant part of this can be attached to an email that could be helpful when requesting help from the mailing list.
