Anybody willing to comment on my problem, or are there only 3 people on this list? Patrick Donker wrote: Hi all, I'm new to both this list and linux so forgive my ignorance and that my question most likely has been asked before. I have been trying to install just about any version of vpopmail, but all have problems when I run make. I use this commandline to install: [EMAIL PROTECTED]:~/vpopmail-5.4.3#./configure --enable-roaming-users --enable-clear-passwd No probs so far. However, as soon as I run make I get the below message and make dies: [EMAIL PROTECTED]:~/vpopmail-5.4.3# make Makefile:332: warning: overriding commands for target `_AM_File' Makefile:322: warning: ignoring old commands for target `_AM_File' Makefile:351: warning: overriding commands for target `[]' Makefile:341: warning: ignoring old commands for target `[]' make: *** No rule to make target `_AM_File,', needed by `all-recursive-am'.
