hi,
i found out the source of for the failure for the packages i am trying to build.
all these problems cropped up after the apt-get upgrade to the unstable tree.
prior to the upgrade i had compiled all these packages. then my m/c crashed i had to
reinstall. so i thought i would upgrade and then build the packages. this is the
result.
when i tried ./configure for kdesupport-2.1 package the following error occured.
<snip>
checking whether build environment is sane... yes
checking whether make sets ${MAKE}... (cached) yes
./configure: cd: admin: No such file or directory
checking for working aclocal... found
checking for working autoconf... found
</snip>
when i tried make clean for kdesupport then this error occured
/bin/sh: cd: audiofile: No such file or directory
make: *** [clean-recursive] Error 1
when i tried compiling qt-2.2.4 then this was the error.
make[1]: Entering directory `/usr/local/qt-2.2.4'
/bin/sh: cd: include: No such file or directory /* note error */
cd src/moc; make
/bin/sh: cd: src/moc: No such file or directory
make[2]: Entering directory `/usr/local/qt-2.2.4'
^C
make[2]: *** [init] Interrupt
make[1]: *** [src-moc] Interrupt
make: *** [init] Interrupt

when i tried to build XFree86-4.0.2 then this was the error.
make[1]: Entering directory `/usr/src/work/xc'
making Makefiles in include...
make[2]: Entering directory `/usr/src/work/xc'
/bin/sh: cd: include: No such file or directory /* note error */

make[1]: *** [clean] Error 2
make[1]: Leaving directory `/usr/src/work/xc'
make: *** [World] Error 2
the common error /bin/sh: cd ... No such file or directory.
by the way all those direc do exist.
