With automake-1.9, it should not be necessary to take care of the
missing configure.rpath warning.  I shall check it out on Debian.

Note that you can run most of INSTALL instructions in this way:

  $ sudo -u www-data /opt/cds-invenio/bin/inveniocfg --create-demo-site

Please just make sure beforehand that www-user has rights to write in
/opt/cds-invenio.  Again I'll recheck and update the guide.

This is probably because your Apache configuration does not contain
`/yourloans' bit in the files defining virtual hosts
(e.g. /opt/cds-invenio/etc/apache/invenio-apache-vhost*.conf).  The
vhost files should contain the following line:

<LocationMatch 
"^(/+$|/index|/collection|/record|/author|/search|/browse|/youraccount|/youralerts|/yourbaskets|/yourmessages|/yourloans|/yourgroups|/yourtickets|/submit|/getfile|/comments|/error|/oai2d|/rss|/help|/journal|/openurl|/stats|/unapi)">

Perhaps you do not have `yourloans' listed there?  Maybe you have not
updated Apache vhost config snippets after your have upgraded your CDS
Invenio installation?

It should not be there, because `/yourloans' is only a symbolic URL that
is mapped onto CDS Invenio's URL handler via the above-mentioned
LocationMatch Apache directive, which then executes Python scripts from
within `lib'.

This is a known problem that we shall fix soon in git/master.  It is
related to the fact that the current BibCirculation module uses some
CERN-style elements that are missing in the generic git/master version
of BibCirculation.  See also the Savannah task
<https://savannah.cern.ch/task/?9400>: some parts are done already, but
some parts are still to do, and the problem you observed is one of them.

Thanks for all your comments, and do not hesitate to send us any more
observations you may have.
