The source tarballs from the download page were built incorrectly - they included the _FOSSIL_ file from my development folder. And that _FOSSIL_ file points to the repository on /home/drh/sqlite/fossil.fossil. Apparently, Jared built from the source tarball. I've fixed the most recent tarball and deleted all the prior ones. (Source tarballs can still be obtained directly from Fossil using the /tarball web method, of course.) Jared: You need to find the _FOSSIL_ file in the source directory and delete it. > > Can you give us more information about where your repository came from, > Jared? > > -- > D.
