Currently trying to compile 2.5.0p2 with:
./configure --with-user=amanda --with-group=disk --with-ssh-security
--with-config=Suretec --with-changer-device=/dev/sg2
--with-tape-device=/dev/nst0
But configure just sits there at:
checking for smbclient... /usr/bin/smbclient
Same when adding --with-smbclient=/usr/bin/smbclient
If you do not need smbclient support, then you can configure
with "--without-smbclient" and work around this problem.
If you do need it... then try to investigate what is blocking.
It seems like "configure" is hanging in one of the next steps.
Configure tries to find out what version of smbclient you have
by running the command:
smbclient '\\not.a.host.name\notashare' -U nosuchuser -N -Tx /dev/null
What happens if you run that manually?
The output of that step does not appear on screen however, so it could
be that configure is actually hanging on the step after that.
The next step is finding out where the "gzip" program lives.
Is does that by looking in several directories.
If one of those directories happens to be mounted on a non-responsive
NFS-server, you hang here too.
The list of directories is:
/bin:/usr/bin:/sbin:/usr/sbin:/usr/ucb:/usr/bsd:/etc:/usr/etc
/usr/local/sbin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/ccs/bin
and the value of $PATH from the user that runs configure.
Anything strange when trying "test -e /bin/gzip"? (Try that for
all the above dirs)
