hi
why are the following lines required ?ln -s /usr/local/bison/bin/bison /usr/bin/bison
ln -s /usr/local/bison/bin/yacc /usr/bin/yacc
Because the binaries were in /usr/local/bison/bin/, which wasn't in system path. This is a really old solution for Ubuntu 14.04 though. It's possible that the binaries are now linked already.
