I obtain latest cvs version of scid by means of the following commands cvs -d:pserver:[email protected]:/cvsroot/scid login cvs -z3 -d:pserver:[email protected]:/cvsroot/scid co -P scid
But then "make install" command fails because of CVS directories in the scid source code tree. The problem arises from the following lines from Makefile.conf 1) install -m 666 ./books/* $(DESTDIR)$(SHAREDIR)/books/ It fails because of presence of the ./books/CVS directory. I always rewrite this line as install -m 666 ./books/*.* $(DESTDIR)$(SHAREDIR)/books/ By the way, current version of scid can work with read only books. Perhaps it is reasonable to change permissions from 666 to 644? 2) install -m 666 ./bases/* $(DESTDIR)$(SHAREDIR)/bases/ It fails because there is no ./bases/ directory in the cvs tree. What happend with bases? But even in the presence of the bases directory this command fails because of CVS subdirectory. Summarising, I propose to replace * by *.* Mikhail Kalenkov. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Create and Deploy Rich Internet Apps outside the browser with Adobe(R)AIR(TM) software.
