the reason autoheader thinks it needs to be run (and it shouldn't) is that the timestamps are wrong. the quick fix is to run...

% touch /tmp/foo && find . -exec touch -r /tmp/foo {} \;

in the top directory. this will set all timestamps to the exact some time and now trigger any unnecessary dependencies.

i've tried to sync my clock as close as possible to the sourceforge cvs servers but it seems this is a recurring issue.

i will add some timestamp check to the distribution code today. most likely a dist-hook.

i'll put out a new tarball today which fixes it.

Hi,

i just created what i think will be the 2.6.0 release at
http://matt-massie.com/ganglia/2.6.0/


I just noticed that there is a new build problem under Darwin. When I start "make" after "configure", it stops immediately:

[tyrion:~/scratch/ganglia-2.6.0] a0620% make
make  all-recursive
Making all in srclib
Making all in libmetrics
cd . && /bin/sh /Users/a0620/scratch/ganglia-2.6.0/srclib/libmetrics/build/missing --run autoheader Can't locate object method "path" via package "Request" at /sw/share/autoconf/Autom4te/C4che.pm line 69, <GEN1> line 111.
autoheader: /sw/bin/autom4te-2.59 failed with exit status: 1
make[3]: *** [config.h.in] Error 1
make[2]: *** [all-recursive] Error 1
make[1]: *** [all-recursive] Error 1
make: *** [all] Error 2

I have autoheader 2.59 installed via Fink in /sw/bin in my $PATH. I don't immediately see what the problem is. That step shouldn't even be necessary, should it?

Thanks, Sebastian
