There was an attempt to convert to autotools (see the origin/autotools branch) but it didn't resolve all the lingering issues and was abandoned. I'm not much of a fan of autotools anyway - extra work for maintainers with no real benefit for such a small, simple collection of software that is inherently Linux-specific and thus doesn't need to be portable to other OSes. Set DESTDIR, not PREFIX. e.g. make DESTDIR=~/build. libustr is a dependency, upstream is http://www.and.org/ustr/, but it is packaged for Fedora as ustr-devel and for Debian as libustr-devel. Does your base distribution not already provide the SELinux libraries? The major ones already do; you just need to install the packages for them. -- Stephen Smalley National Security Agency -- This message was distributed to subscribers of the selinux mailing list.
