To overcome the problems of generating .h files on Unix, I have updated the Makefile.am (the automake make files) to be more robust so that if the line mode browser isn't installed on your system it tries to generate them using a perl script. I have also updated the documentation on how to get boot strapped at http://www.w3.org/Library/cvs.html#Boot In order to get this change, please do the following cd libwww cvs -z3 update -d This step is described in http://www.w3.org/Library/cvs.html#update Then run the following commands aclocal; automake; autoconf as described in http://www.w3.org/Library/cvs.html#Boot now rerun the configure script with the options that you want, FOR EXAMPLE CFLAGS='-g -Wall' ./configure --with-zlib --with-regex and then a normal make: make I hope this will make life easier - the steps above are normally mostly done automatically but making them explicit help prevent potential problems. Changes are as always described at http://db.w3.org/Library/latest.sql Thanks, Henrik -- Henrik Frystyk Nielsen, World Wide Web Consortium http://www.w3.org/People/Frystyk
