Greetings All, I just downloaded the source tarball, swftools-0.9.2.tgz, so I could build on Ubuntu 12.04 (since it isn't in the repositories):
wget http://www.swftools.org/swftools-0.9.2.tar.gz cd ~/src tar -zvxf ~/Downloads/swftools-0.9.2.tgz cd ~/src/swftools-0.9.2/ ./configure make sudo make install Since I already had libjpeg8 and freetype installed, I didn't have any problem till the end of 'make install' where the makefile invokes 'rm' with some options that my 'rm' doesn't care for: rm -f /usr/local/share/swftools/swfs/default_viewer.swf -o -L /usr/local/share/swftools/swfs/default_viewer.swf rm: invalid option -- 'o' Try `rm --help' for more information. make[1]: *** [install] Error 1 make[1]: Leaving directory `/home/rwilbur/src/swftools-0.9.2/swfs' make: *** [install] Error 2 rwilbur@ordinate:~/src/swftools-0.9.2$ rm --version rm (GNU coreutils) 8.13 Copyright (C) 2011 Free Software Foundation, Inc.

The installed version on my machine (8.13) doesn't have any documentation for options '-o' or '-L'. Sincerely, Richard --------------- SWFTools-common is a self-managed list.
