#32 plib_examples-1.8.4.tar.gz missing data directories

[Christopher Brooks]

It looks like plib_examples-1.8.4.tar.gz is missing
data directories that are in CVS.

To replicate:
1) Download
http://plib.sourceforge.net/dist/plib_examples-1.8.4.tar.gz
and untar it

2) Download the plib_examples cvs repository
mkdir tmp
cd tmp
cvs
-d:pserver:anonymous@cvs.sourceforge.net:/cvsroot/plib
login
cvs
-d:pserver:anonymous@cvs.sourceforge.net:/cvsroot/plib
co plib/examples

3) Do a recursive diff
cd ..
diff -r plib_examples-1.8.4 tmp/plib/examples

4) Search for missing data directories:
bash-3.00$ grep "Only in" /tmp/plib.diffs | grep data
Only in tmp/plib/examples/src/fnt/data/CVS: Entries.Log
Only in tmp/plib/examples/src/ssg/dynamics: data
Only in tmp/plib/examples/src/ssg/load_save: data
Only in tmp/plib/examples/src/ssg/viewer: data
bash-3.00$

Thus ssg/dynamic/data, ssg/load_save/data
and ssg/viewer/data are missing from the tar file.

Also, while configuring plib_examples-1.8.4, I got
error: cannot run /bin/sh ./config.sub

The solution was to run
aclocal
automake --add-missing
autoconf

and then run ./configure
So, I guess config.sub is missing?

When I try to run the ssg examples from
plib_examples-1.8.4, I get:
bash-3.00$ ./dynamics

These examples work fine in the CVS version because
the data files are present
