cannot get make to upgrade

the version of make on my Redhat 6.2 system is 3.78.1. I need a newer version to install glibc 2.2, so I downloaded make 1.79.1 and installed it. Or at least, I *think* I installed it.

I cd'ed into the directory containing the libraries, and as root did
./configure
make
make install

However, when I do "make --version" it still says 3.78.1 and glibc 2.2 will still not install.

Do I need to reboot or something to get the newer version of make to install? What am I doing wrong?

thanks...
 
Since you have Redhat installed..I would suggest you get the pre-compiled RPM binaries of the latest Make and then do a "rpm -Fvh make.rpm" and you'll be all set..

Check out rpmfind.net for the RPM of Make..Regards
