Re: Install Failure

[Vin Shelton <acs@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Yes, completely clean build from latest sources.

From the build directory:
   mkdir zsh-2018-09-06
   cd ./zsh-2018-09-06
   pushd ../../src/zsh-2018-09-06/
  ./Util/preconfig
  popd
  ../../src/zsh-2018-09-06/configure --prefix=/opt/zsh-2018-09-06
  make
  make install

If I had to guess, your source directory is not completely fresh and
../../../src/zsh-2018-09-06/Doc/help/* already exists.
