Arjen, you may be confusing running "autoreconf" with running "./configure". The tarballs I mentioned are mostly equivalent to what Arnaud creates at release time, except that they have a slightly different format for the version number (so that we can tell which SVN revision they came from). If a specific buildslave machine doesn't have a package needed for some aspect of NUT (e.g. HAL, SNMP, SSL), the only side effect is that it will not test that feature in 'make check' - but it should still create a configure script that will detect the features properly on other machines. -- - Charles Lepple _______________________________________________ Nut-upsuser mailing list [email protected] http://lists.alioth.debian.org/mailman/listinfo/nut-upsuser
