All, Building adept. the package builds without error, but results in an empty package. I'm using a standard autotools build: cd ${srcdir} ## Set up environment msg "Setting PATH, Trinity Environment variables" # Source the QT and TDE profile [ "$QTDIR" = "" ] && . /etc/profile.d/tqt3.sh # or qt3.sh [ "$TDEDIR" = "" ] && . /etc/profile.d/trinity.sh # or tde.sh ## Generate config files and update with autoreconf cd "${srcdir}/${pkgname#*-}" msg "Copying system libtool files...." cp /usr/share/aclocal/libtool.m4 ./admin/libtool.m4.in cp /usr/share/libtool/config/ltmain.sh ./admin msg "Running make -f admin/Makefile.common ...." make -f admin/Makefile.common ## configure msg "Configuring - ${pkgname}..." ./configure \ --prefix=${TDEDIR} \ --with-qt-dir=${QTDIR} \ --with-qt-includes=${QTDIR}/include \ --with-qt-libraries=${QTDIR}/lib \ --with-extra-includes="/usr/include/tqt:/usr/include/tqt/Qt" \ --with-extra-libs=${TDEDIR}/lib/trinity \ --sysconfdir=${TDEDIR}/etc \ --localstatedir=/var msg "Building - ${pkgname}..." make $NUMJOBS Then calling: msg "Packaging - $pkgname-$pkgver" cd "${srcdir}/${pkgname#*-}" make -j1 DESTDIR="$pkgdir" install I get no errors, but it is apparent nothing is being compiled after ./configure is done. What should I look for and in what files? The Makefile (or .in or .am.in or in the autom4te.cache files??) Here is the end of ./configure and the build: <snip> config.status: executing depfiles commands config.status: executing libtool commands Good - your configure finished.
