Hello, Helmut. Have you tested your assertion? Because if ./configure fails, MCONFIG is not created and the build (make) fails: make[1]: Entering directory '/home/agi/debian/netkit-tftp/netkit-tftp/tftp' Makefile:3: ../MCONFIG: No such file or directory make[1]: *** No rule to make target '../MCONFIG'. Stop. make[1]: Leaving directory '/home/agi/debian/netkit-tftp/netkit-tftp/tftp' make: *** [Makefile:7: tftp.build] Error 2 Could you let me know how to reproduce a misbuild?
