Ticket 30: uuid 0.9.0 installation failure
"make install" fails, it tries to install -s (strip) a shell script (this is SuSE Linux 8.2 FWIW). It should presumably avoid stripping shell scripts or by trying to install uuid_cli instead.
$ make install
...(after installing the library successfully)...
./shtool install -c -s -m 755 uuid /usr/local/bin/
strip: /usr/local/bin/#INST@22669#: File format not recognized
make: *** [install] Error 1
$ file uuid
uuid: Bourne shell script text
Workaround: install manually.
Oh BTW, the ticketing system does not offer "uuid" subsystem after clicking on "New" (upper right hand of screen)
Remarks:
Ok, the next-to-last line of the install section of Makefile.in needs to use $(LIBTOOL). This edited version works for me:
119 $(SHTOOL) install -c -m 644 uuid.h $(DESTDIR)$(includedir)/
120 $(SHTOOL) install -c -m 644 uuid.3 $(DESTDIR)$(mandir)/man3/
121 @$(LIBTOOL) --mode=install $(SHTOOL) install -c -m 644 libuuid.la $(DESTDIR)$(libdir)/
122 @$(LIBTOOL) --mode=install $(SHTOOL) install -c -s -m 755 uuid $(DESTDIR)$(bindir)/
123 $(SHTOOL) install -c -m 644 uuid.1 $(DESTDIR)$(mandir)/man1/
124
125 uninstall:
Patch attached.
