Hi Dan,
Thanks for the quick response. I was doing some more digging and found the
problem. It dies trying to run 'mkinstalldirs /var/empty', which comes
from the line in the gsi_openssh/source/Makefile:
(umask 022 ; $(srcdir)/*mkinstalldirs* $(DESTDIR)$(PRIVSEP_PATH))
Where DESTIR is empty. In the newer versions, the Makefile has:
PRIVSEP_PATH=/var/empty
while in the older version (the ones that succeed for me)
*PRIVSEP_PATH*=${prefix}/var/empty
I'm doing a non-root installation on SUSE Linux 12.2, which is why it fails
to make /var/empty. I don't know if this is a mistake in the newer
Makefiles.in or it was changed for a reason.
I can just edit the Makefile, but can this be fixed upstream?
thanks,
Jeff
