Yea, I see the same problem when I attempt to build from a RH 8.0 system. The newer version of autoconf/automake seems to have turned off some legacy options. -rusty -----Original Message----- From: Rob Rhoads [mailto:err...@li...] Sent: Thursday, October 17, 2002 4:39 PM To: fau...@li... Cc: ina...@in... Subject: Re: [Fault-injection-developer] Couple of issues downloading and building the FITH source code Ran into a problem... Since we are targeting any Linux kernel developer & not just developers using CGLE, I tried to build FITH on my CoosBay (Intel P4 DP SMP box) running RedHat 8.0. After making sure that the appropriate shared libraries/packages were installed (i.e. libdissasm, libxml2, etc.), I attempted to get the ./configure script built by running Makefile.cvs file. Below was error output. NOTE: When we get around to packaging up a source tarball, we need to include ./configure script already built, so they can just run it and then do a Make all.
