Glad it could help, and sorry the install file wasn't clear enough. The thing that typing "make" does, is this part of the install: 2. Rename all the files that begin with "dfl_" to the same filename without the "dfl_". (eg. "dfl_config.inc" gets renamed to "config.inc") Did you only rename dfl_config.inc? I guess we need to specify each file explicitly in the INSTALL file, like this: dfl_config.inc -> config.inc This certainly shouldn't take anyone 5 hours to install, so let us know what you think would be a good way to go about this (remember to use "reply to all" so it goes to all the developers and not just me.)
