You say you have repaired the faulty Makefile, but HTK thinks the error is still there. Go back and check that you made the correction as required; note that HTK uses a number of different Makefiles, make sure you edit the right one in the right directory according to the instructions given.

I would try this command:

     sed -i 's:        :\t:g' HLMTools/Makefile

note 8 spaces

Hi colbec!

yes im sure i reedited the correct makefile.

Hi nsh!

I tried the comand you sugested and this happened:

kepa@kepa-VirtualBox:~/htk$ sed -i 's:        :\t:g' HLMTools/Makefile

It looks like im close to get the binaries i need, but still something is wrong. It seems that I have to give the permission to be executed in some files but Im not sure.

Run make install as a root, or with sudo:

      sudo make install
