But prlimit is installed (util-linux) and the directories mentioned in the
environment settings above appear to be present. So the cause of failure is not
clear.
Might this symptom result from the seemingly-unrelated errors concerning
jupyter-install from `sudo make install` (the ./configure PREFIX was /usr ) ?
Notes:
(1) systemtap 5.6-pre-relese (repo cloned 27/June/2026)
(2) The make worked OK (make.log is attached)
(3) `sudo make install` reported errors relating to jupyter-notebook
This component jupyter-notebook is not installed, and not listed as a
requirement.
It is unclear whether these errors cause `make installcheck` to refuse to
start.
Attached file: sudo_make_install.log.
(4) The entire screen output of `make installcheck` as root is below:
