I'd hard-code that to "MD_MAJOR_VERSION=2". That was an ill-fated attempt to use the Debian changelog to drive the shared library versions, which IMHO is not the way to do things. > Also, I'm rather confused by where shared libraries are kept.

It really depends on the way your cross- compilation environment works. Something may be forcing it to not build shared objects. _______________________________________________ libhid-discuss mailing list [email protected] http://lists.alioth.debian.org/mailman/listinfo/libhid-discuss http://libhid.alioth.debian.org/
