-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Right now, every release of e2fsprogs, I do the following: ./configure --enable-elf-shlibs && make && make install rm config.cache && rm config.status ./configure && make install-libs Are these two seperate steps necessary? Seems to me that I had a problem installing something or other and it suggested the first line. Then later on seomthing else suggested the second line. The second line doesn't work w/ e2fsprogs-1.21-WIP-0601... Help? - -- Douglas J.

The second line doesn't work w/ > e2fsprogs-1.21-WIP-0601..."It doesn't work" is a bit vague. :-) "./configure --enable-elf-shlibs && make install install-libs" should work OK, though: I don't know why you'd have to play with doing two configures unless you really want static libs installed for some reason.

All that should be necessary is: configure --enable-elf-shlibs make make install Whoever suggested that you do those last two lines was probably trying to do something very funny smoking something funny. :-) When you do a make install at the top level it includes doing a make-install-libs, and in the library directories, doing a make install also installs the static libraries. - Ted
