[e-users] Opensuse: errors during make install
Hi, I'm running OpenSUSE 11.0 with the latest E17 environment from svn. I get this error during make install: ( ...make[2]: Entering directory `/home/dazibaldo/e/trunk/edje_editor/data' make[3]: Entering directory `/home/dazibaldo/e/trunk/edje_editor/data' make[3]: Nothing to be done for `install-exec-am'.) test -z /usr/local/share/applications || /bin/mkdir -p /usr/local/share/applications /bin/mkdir: cannot create directory `/usr/local/share/applications': File exists make[3]: *** [install-desktopDATA] Error 1 make[3]: Leaving directory `/home/dazibaldo/e/trunk/edje_editor/data' make[2]: *** [install-am] Error 2 make[2]: Leaving directory `/home/dazibaldo/e/trunk/edje_editor/data' make[1]: *** [install-recursive] Error 1 make[1]: Leaving directory `/home/dazibaldo/e/trunk/edje_editor/data' make: *** [install-recursive] Error Same error with emphasis, entrance_edit_gui and eyesight (all other programs are ok). Now, these apps build fine on Ubuntu Hardy Heron... Any hints from openSUSErs ? - This SF.Net email is sponsored by the Moblin Your Move Developer's challenge Build the coolest Linux based applications with Moblin SDK win great prizes Grand prize is a trip for two to an Open Source event anywhere in the world http://moblin-contest.org/redirect.php?banner_id=100url=/ ___ enlightenment-users mailing list enlightenment-users@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/enlightenment-users

Are you running 'make install' as root? Non-root users probably cannot create that directory, in which case I would say the error message is misleading. The mkdir should not fail as it is preceded with a check to see if the directory exists. Plus, mkdir behaviour is mandated to NOT fail on existing directories with -p. Before I start to blame the distro, please first check man mkdir on your system to see if OpenSUSE's mkdir says anything about this. Then check the permissions on each directory in the /usr/local/share/applications chain. Is the filesystem the directory is on mounted ro perhaps? Finally, are you using SELinux or AppArmour or any other access control mechanism that can prevent even root from creating a directory? -- alan dot mckinnon at gmail dot com - This SF.Net email is sponsored by the Moblin Your Move Developer's challenge Build the coolest Linux based applications with Moblin SDK win great prizes Grand prize is a trip for two to an Open Source event anywhere in the world http://moblin-contest.org/redirect.php?banner_id=100url=/ ___ enlightenment-users mailing list enlightenment-users@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/enlightenment-users

I use the common sequence './autogen.sh make sudo make install' for installing applications. I checked the permissions, everything's ok. Never messed with SElinux or AppArmour... For some unknown reasons, /bin/mkdir seems to ignore the '-p' argument. This problem is limited to edje_editor, eyesight, emphasis and entrance_edit_gui, everything else builds flawlessly. :-\ - This SF.Net email is sponsored by the Moblin Your Move Developer's challenge Build the coolest Linux based applications with Moblin SDK win great prizes Grand prize is a trip for two to an Open Source event anywhere in the world http://moblin-contest.org/redirect.php?banner_id=100url=/ ___ enlightenment-users mailing list enlightenment-users@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/enlightenment-users

Maybe a process of elimination is called for.
