It's because the configure script was unable to determine how to read the list of mounted filesystems on your system. It tried several approaches that work on just about every Unix-like system, and none of them worked. Maybe one came close to working and just needs a slightly different set of header files. To see, check in your config.log file. There you'll find details on how/sort-of-why each of the tests failed. If you know how to do it on your system (i.e., what function to call, getmntent, getmnt, fread, etc, with what arguments, and what headers), please send a little C program (or documentation) demonstrating what to do. _______________________________________________ Bug-coreutils mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://mail.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/bug-coreutils
