[OpenAFS-devel] Openafs 1.6.10 does not build on Fedora 21

[Dave Botsch]

So, got past the kernel problem.

Of course, I'm trying to generate RPMs from the git instead of just
doing a "make dest" / etc.

Got as far as:

make[3]: Leaving directory
'/home/dbotsch/rpmbuild/BUILD/openafs-1.6.11/src/shlibafsauthent'
if test -d "doc/man-pages" ; then \
        cd doc/man-pages && make dest ; \
fi
make[3]: Entering directory
'/home/dbotsch/rpmbuild/BUILD/openafs-1.6.11/doc/man-pages'
chmod +x install-man
mkdir -p

/home/dbotsch/rpmbuild/BUILD/openafs-1.6.11/amd64_linux26/dest/man/man5
/home/dbotsch/rpmbuild/BUILD/openafs-1.6.11/amd64_linux26/dest/man/man8
set -e; for M in man1/*.1 man5/*.5 man8/*.8 ; do \
    ./install-man $M
/home/dbotsch/rpmbuild/BUILD/openafs-1.6.11/amd64_linux26/dest/man/$M ;
\
done

Any thoughts as to what I did wrong? For the purposes of this, I put
"1.6.11" in .version, and created my two tar.bz2 files with:

tar cjvf openafs-doc.tar.bz2 openafs-1.6.11/doc
tar cjvf openafs-src.tar.bz2 openafs-1.6.11 --exclude=openafs-1.6.11/doc
--exclude=openafs-1.6.11/.git

after, of course, renaming the directory appropriately and first running
the autoconf in there.

Thanks.
