The source zip / tgz also differs in that the tgz one has files and folders not present in the zip one. I presume this might cause failures if the zip file was unzipped on a linux machine?
The files /folders only present in tgz src are: aclocal.m4 config (folder) configure (folder) Makefile.in framework/Makefile.in test/Makefile.in utils/Makefile.in I hope I didn't miss any. Is it ok for these to be missing in the .zip src packaging? -Marshall On 1/16/2012 2:03 PM, Bhavani Iyer wrote: > Marshall thanks for the reviewing the packages. > > Updated uimacpp 2.4.0 builds are available at > http://people.apache.org/~bhavani/uimacpp-release-candidates/2.4.0/02/ > > These contain fixes for the various issues reported by Marshall.
