Hi, On systems that have mandoc installed but are missing an nroff binary, the configure script will fall back to pre-formatted manual pages despite the fact that mandoc could be used. The proposed patch adds mandoc as a valid formatter to configure.ac. As mandoc supports the -mdoc flag, it can simply be added to the list of nroff-like binaries.

Hi, the libguestfs library uses a number of external tools; for some of them, we search for them at build time, enabling some feature only if found, and later on assuming at runtime they are installed. However, the situation is more complex than that: - hardcoding the full path means that there is an incoherency in the way some of the tools are used, as some other tools (e.g. qemu-img) are

Hello, I've just tries make && make install on a fresh CVS tree, and get: llvm[0]: Installing include files /bin/sh: line 1: pax: command not found Two questions. 1. Why install process requires some nonstandard tool? Is it possible to get away without it. 2. autoconf/configure.ac has this: AC_PATH_PROG(PAX, [pax], [pax]) but Makefile.rules uses plain 'pax',

If we can get people to test their platforms against the last snapshot/cvs tree I'd be greatful. (http://www.openssh.com/portable.html) I know NeXT platform has problems. I'm going to spend tonight looking at it. Also, take a moment to see what manpage type ./configure decided for your system and if it's 'cat' please let us know. Thanks. - Ben

When building the mini initrd, previously we copied the modules into the initrd as-is, so for example if the module was xz-compressed, we copied the foo.ko.xz file to the initrd. This requires that the mini init binary is linked to zlib & lzma, so that it knows how to uncompress these modules when insmoding them at boot time. Also since the init is statically linked, it required _static_

Please excuse me for mailing you directly instead of using the 'sendbug' facility; it seems to be an OpenBSD-only facility, and I didn't see a bug-tracking interface on the web site. I know the "UseLogin" feature is deprecated (to some degree, at any rate), however, on a Red Hat 6.2-based system, it is broken, because ssh.h statically defines LOGIN_PROGRAM as /usr/bin/login,
