Abinit 6.12.1 -- make error

Hi, I am trying to install abinit with such options:

./configure --enable-64bit-flags --enable-bindings --enable-clib -- enable-exports

but I have error when I use make

*** No rule to make target 'ab6_symmetry.fortran.h', needed by 'ab6_symmetry.o'. Stop.
Leaving directory ` /home/alphard/bin/abinit-6.12.1/binding/parser '

My system is openSUSE 12.1, and I didn't find this file in this directory (only ab6_symmetry.c and ab6_symmetry.h).

The --enable-bindings option is experimental and not portable. It is meant for developers only. It might however work fine if you compile Abinit with GCC. More generally, it is only useful if you want to use Abinit primitives from a Python program.

The --enable-64bit-flags should be used only if you experience problems on 64-bit machines with the default parameters.
