How about specifying the directory when running the configure script - like this:
/configure --prefix=/usr/local --sbindir=/usr/local/sbin --with-serial-dev=/ dev/usb/hid/hiddev[0-9] --with-upstype=usb --with-upscable=usb --enable-pthr eads --enable-usb -------begin signature--------- Rilindo Foster http://monzell.com AIM: rilindo ---------end signature--------- -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Behalf Of David Kramer Sent: Friday, March 21, 2003 5:26 AM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: apcupsd on Red Hat 7.3 and Back-UPS XS USB I downloaded, and did ./configure '--with-serial-dev=/dev/usb/hid/hiddev[0-9]' --with-upstype=usb --with-upscable=usb --enable-pthreads --enable-usb which seemed to go OK. But when I went to install,... [EMAIL PROTECTED] apcupsd-3.10.5]# make install /bin/sh ./ /sbin ./: ./: is a directory make: *** [install-directories] Error 126 Looking at the Makefile, there appears to be no "mkdir" command to actually make the directories. install-directories: install-dir $(SHELL) $(MKINSTALLDIRS) $(DESTDIR)$(sbindir) $(SHELL) $(MKINSTALLDIRS) $(DESTDIR)$(mandir) @if [ ! -d $(DESTDIR)$(sysconfdir) ] ; then \ $(SHELL) $(MKINSTALLDIRS) $(DESTDIR)$(sysconfdir); \ chmod 755 $(DESTDIR)$(sysconfdir); \ fi $MKINSTALLDIRS = $(topdir)/, and $topdir isn't set to anyting. Niether is $DESTDIR I tried making those directories by hand and bypassing that section, then make install ran without errors, but did not actually install any files. You can see the output of "configure" at http://thekramers.net/tmp/apc-configure.out You can see my config.status at http://thekramers.net/tmp/apc-config.status You can see the Makefile at http://thekramers.net/tmp/apc-makefile Any advice would be appreciated. Thanks. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- DDDD David Kramer [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://thekramers.net DK KD "Light is meaningful only in relation to darkness, and truth DKK D presupposes error.
