Hi All,
             I'm trying to build OWFS on a recent version of Archlinux 
(3.12.34-1-ARCH #1 PREEMPT) running on a RaspberryPi but am having 
various difficulties (I've been running owfs on Raspbian for close to 2 
years now without any problems). There is an OWFS package in Arch but 
it's failing to run (using --debug and fake devices does not help). I've 
already identified that it needs additional libraries installed (eg 
libusb-compat and a host of build environment packages). I also got 
around (I think) around the python version issues (version 3 vs version 
4) by using the configure script call specified in Arch's PKGBUILD 
package file.

         The OWFS configure script also seems to require version 1.13 
(am__api_version='1.13') of some of the build tools. Arch has other 
versions of these tools (a lot are at version 1.14). I've changed the 
configure script to 1.14 but still am having issues. The last build 
attempt gave ...

[pi_1@RasPi_1 owfs-2.9p7]$ sudo make install
[sudo] password for pi_1:
  cd . && /bin/sh 
/home/pi_1/MyFiles/owfs/owfs-2.9p7/src/scripts/install/missing 
automake-1.14 --foreign
configure.ac:52: warning: AM_INIT_AUTOMAKE: two- and three-arguments 
forms are deprecated.  For more info, see:
configure.ac:52:

found
configure.ac:76:   'automake --add-missing' can install 'compile'
Makefile:491: recipe for target 'Makefile.in' failed
make: *** [Makefile.in] Error 1

         I have found a OWFS build guide on Arch at 
http://sourceforge.net/p/owfs/mailman/message/27811887/ but that's from 
2011. Any more recent guides or pointers?
