Hello!
Paul, I just completed building my "test Slackware-10.2 system". And
naturally I then grabbed the things to make OWFS work.

It turns out that the problem our French correspondent reported was
first reported by me. I don't know why I didn't recall that, but yes I
did see exactly that problem, back about the turn of the century or
so, perhaps as much as seven years earlier.

Your response then was to update things and produce a p30 release.

He has since found a work around, the forum response indicates that he
selected the p28 release and got that to build properly. I suspect
that the run-time library build methods that are supposed to be
consistent across Linux distributions actually were not as such
earlier on.

Now they are. Also of course the way we write C code does drift with
time. Yours is getting better at it.

However it did repeat itself for the p30, (here) I believe then I
simply upgraded to 11.0 since by that time Pat released that version.

Now that he's found a solution, we can basically consider this problem closed.
