Hello all. I am trying to compile several packages and as expected I'm failing miserably :)
The first victim was tree, that vital component of every system; I got the src deb, made a dpkg-source -x ***.dsc (I had the diff and the tar.gz) and it expanded nicely; I then made a simple configure && make; there were issued with MAXPATHLEN - I red about that in the Debian GNU/Hurd page; seing this, I made such a brutish hack that I won't even sy it in public; anyway, ir compiled and it worked. After that I had a go with epic, same process, same MAXPATHLEN error, same brutish hack, but this time it gave a linker error, apparently all the function in term.o that are supported by a term lib (neither termcap or terminfo were detected during configure) fail to link. Any ideas on this one? It's prolly way over my ability to fix it, but I would like to know at least the reasons for the failuer :) Best regards, Frederico S. Mu�oz [EMAIL PROTECTED]
