That file is the intermediate output generated by libtool (AFAIK). To get the final binaries you need to run "make install". You can use DESTDIR (as in "make install DESTDIR=/some/temp/dir") to install things into a temp directory, and then copy the binaries from there. I recommend configuring with "--without-root-privileges" when doing that. -- - Marcelo ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ _______________________________________________ open-vm-tools-devel mailing list open-vm-tools-devel@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/open-vm-tools-devel
