One thing I do is use a script to configure and make amanda. I post
it occasionally, and it looks something like this (verify that the
compiler tools are included in your $PATH too of course)
----------------
#!/bin/sh
# since I'm always forgetting to su amanda...
if [ `whoami` != 'amanda' ]; then
echo
echo "!!!!!!!!!!!! Warning !!!!!!!!!!!!"
echo "Amanda needs to be configured and built by the user amanda,"
echo "but must be installed by user root."
echo
exit 1
fi
make clean
rm -f config.status config.cache
./configure --with-user=amanda \
--with-group=disk \
--with-owner=amanda \
--with-tape-device=/dev/nst0 \
--with-changer-device=/dev/sg1 \
--with-gnu-ld --prefix=/usr/local \
--with-debugging=/tmp/amanda-dbg/ \
--with-tape-server=coyote.coyote.den \
--with-amandahosts \
--with-configdir=/usr/local/etc/amanda
make
------------
clip it, set the execute bits, and edit to fit your scenario.
The depfiles error/hang says theres something wrong with the $PATH or
the permissions of whats in the $PATH to me, sitting here making
SWAG's about others problems (about which I've been shown to not have
a clue from time to time :-( ).
