Same error happens when trying to use the exact redis plan.
https://github.com/habitat-sh/habitat/blob/master/plans/redis/plan.sh

However the cpio plan works (which is nearly identical)
https://github.com/habitat-sh/habitat/blob/master/plans/cpio/plan.sh

[spuder]

This must be an environmental problem. The same redis plan works on another machine.

[spuder]

Line 1700 and 1751 of the hab-plan-build default to 'make' and 'make install' if no build plan is specified.

The solution is to add the following to your plan

do_build() {
  return 0
}

do_install() {
  return 0
}

Solutions

• Dont' assume user wants to 'make' 'make install'

or

• Better Document that do_build and do_install need to be set on 'non compiled' binaries.
