Here is a small patch you might want to try. It will make the following
modifications to the source: patch the file "autogen.sh" (from the cvs)
to the source and modify the spec files slightly.
1) just save this message as "jfsutils.patch", there is a patch near the
end of this message (please do not cut and paste, you need to preserve
the format of the patch file)
2) get your original jfsutils-1.0.11.tar.gz, open it (as root)
somewhere such as ~/tmp/
cd ~/tmp
tar xzf jfsutils-1.0.11.tar.gz
3) patch the source
cd jfsutils-1.0.11
cat ../jfsutils.patch | patch -p1
chmod +x autogen.sh
4) Put the changes back to the tar file
cd ..
tar cfz jfsutils-1.0.11.tar.gz ./jfsutils-1.0.11/
5) Done. Remember not to miss the "chmod" line in 3). Now the source
is ready to build:
rpm -tb --target=i386 jfsutils-1.0.11.tar.gz
Please tell me if you have any build problem, especially check the man
pages location to see if has any conflict with your distribution.
The patch starts below...
