Thanks Pierre and Fernando for the quick response; I realise that the error
was a typo that didn't actually affect the build, and I know that you guys
are really busy.  Let me take this opportunity to say that I believe the
lists and the *LFS books are the best GNU/Linux resources on the Web, and
thanks again for all the help that you and the others have provided over
the years.  Maybe that's not said often enough.

No big deal, I took it, because I thought you'd prefer update the GNOME 
packages, rather than correcting a harmless typo...

My script is as the book now. I had that change to be done, probably
more than one update ago, thought had done it. Perhaps it got back
during the discussion about removing libexec, then not doing it for
sudo. But I should have noticed it. Apologies to all.

You are incorrect there Richard.

I have used those instructions for sudo and it does NOT as you
state produce
two sudo directories.


Maybe we are both right :-)  I didn't run make && make install with 
the book's instructions so I can't confirm that two directories *are* 
produced.



Try running ./configure --help and looking at the maintainers
instructions.

Christopher

I's a fact, however, that if you run --libexecdir=/usr/lib/sudo you 
*will* receive a warning from the configure script that reads: 
WARNING: libexecdir should not include the "sudo" subdirectory. 
 Running --libexecdir=/usr/lib does not produce the warning, but 
still provides the required /usr/lib/sudo.


If, as you say, two directories *aren't* produced then the configure 
script must be compensating for the error.  However, it is *still* an 
error and should be rectified in the book.




I go have a look and correct if necessary.

Pierre

Done at r12930.

I's a fact, however, that if you run --libexecdir=/usr/lib/sudo you 
*will* receive a warning from the configure script that reads: 
WARNING: libexecdir should not include the "sudo" subdirectory. 
 Running --libexecdir=/usr/lib does not produce the warning, but still 
provides the required /usr/lib/sudo.

I's a fact, however, that if you run --libexecdir=/usr/lib/sudo you *will*
receive a warning from the configure script that reads: WARNING: libexecdir
should not include the "sudo" subdirectory.  Running --libexecdir=/usr/lib
does not produce the warning, but still provides the required /usr/lib/sudo.

If, as you say, two directories *aren't* produced then the configure script
must be compensating for the error.  However, it is *still* an error and
should be rectified in the book.
