Paul et al,

I have built parts of this any number of times, some of the things I see this time are familiar, others are new. I am running ubuntu distribution 5.10 (late model debian.) I pulled last night's build as a tarball, so this is current.

This one has happened to me every time I have ever built. When automake generates the Makefile.in files, I see this:

CONFIG_HEADER = ./[src/include/owfs_config.h

The [ is a mistake, and I now have a handy clean script and find to clean it all up. It's just annoying.



This one is new:
$ ./bootstrap
configure.ac: 904: required file `./src/include/owfs_config.h.in]' not found

module/swig/tcl/Makefile.am:54: invalid unused variable name: `AM_LDFLAGS'
module/swig/tcl/Makefile.am:11: invalid unused variable name: `nodist_ow_la_SOURCES'



As generated, the makefile does not successfully link the modules. AM_LDFLAGS has the correct things, but it does not show up on the LINK line. I just set LDFLAGS = $(AM_LDFLAGS) and it then works. another find and editor script to fix it.



the owpython build died an ugly death.



The owfs build worked fine, but it fails to run as a normal user with the fuse error: fuse: failed to exec fusermount: Permission denied It does work as root.
$ ls -l /usr/bin/fusermount
-rwsr-xr--  1 root fuse 16984 2005-07-24 07:57 /usr/bin/fusermount

protection looks reasonable to me. It works when run as root, but no one else can then see the directory tree.



Maybe I'm just clueless, but I can't get the test perl script to find the perl module that was installed...



that's enough for now.
