Check Operating System Software Requirements

To determine if you are using the correct system executables, run:

$ /usr/bin/which make
$ /usr/bin/which ar
$ /usr/bin/which ld
$ /usr/bin/which nm

Each of the four previous commands should point to the /usr/bin directory. If not, add /usr/bin to the beginning of the PATH environment variable in the current shell.
