ifuse documentation is wrong

Reported by Nico Caprioli | March 26th, 2009 @ 02:18 PM

Well, I downloaded through git libiphone, as is written in README file I used ./autogen.sh and after ./configure It seem to don't generate errors but when I use "make" command it return me with this error:


make  all-recursive
make[1]: ingresso nella directory «/home/nico/libiphone»
Making all in src
make[2]: ingresso nella directory «/home/nico/libiphone/src»
make[2]: Non c'è da fare nulla per «all»
make[2]: uscita dalla directory «/home/nico/libiphone/src»
Making all in include
make[2]: ingresso nella directory «/home/nico/libiphone/include»
make[2]: Non c'è da fare nulla per «all»
make[2]: uscita dalla directory «/home/nico/libiphone/include»
Making all in fdi
make[2]: ingresso nella directory «/home/nico/libiphone/fdi»
make[2]: Non c'è da fare nulla per «all»
make[2]: uscita dalla directory «/home/nico/libiphone/fdi»
Making all in udev
make[2]: ingresso nella directory «/home/nico/libiphone/udev»
make[2]: Non c'è da fare nulla per «all»
make[2]: uscita dalla directory «/home/nico/libiphone/udev»
make[2]: ingresso nella directory «/home/nico/libiphone»
make[2]: Non c'è da fare nulla per «all-am»
make[2]: uscita dalla directory «/home/nico/libiphone»
make[1]: uscita dalla directory «/home/nico/libiphone»

Ingresso nella directory mean entering in directory (or something like this)
Usita dalla directory mean exiting from directory
Non c'è nulla da fare per "" mean nothing makes for ""

Make command seem to work with other source code so I think there's a bug on libiphone ;-)

    Sorry the response got submitted before I finished. I ran:

    git clone git://github.com/MattColyer/libiphone.git libiphone-test
    ./autogen.sh
    ./configure
    make
    
    

    And it compiles all the code correctly. What distribution are you using and what version of automake?

    I run your same command but when I run "make" it return with the error posted before. I have Automake 1.10.

    Could you run:

    LANG=C make

    so we can see the error message without translation issues.

    this is the translation that you requested

    make all-recursive make[1]: Entering directory /home/nico/libiphone' Making all in src make[2]: Entering directory/home/nico/libiphone/src' make[2]: Nothing to be done for all'. make[2]: Leaving directory/home/nico/libiphone/src' Making all in include make[2]: Entering directory /home/nico/libiphone/include' make[2]: Nothing to be done forall'. make[2]: Leaving directory /home/nico/libiphone/include' Making all in fdi make[2]: Entering directory/home/nico/libiphone/fdi' make[2]: Nothing to be done for all'. make[2]: Leaving directory/home/nico/libiphone/fdi' Making all in udev make[2]: Entering directory /home/nico/libiphone/udev' make[2]: Nothing to be done forall'. make[2]: Leaving directory /home/nico/libiphone/udev' make[2]: Entering directory/home/nico/libiphone' make[2]: Nothing to be done for all-am'. make[2]: Leaving directory/home/nico/libiphone' make[1]: Leaving directory /home/nico/libiphone'

    everywhere i read on automake 1.10 it can't make some thing that older version make, maybe is this the problem?

    The output you're giving shows no errors, simply that everything is up to date.

    To be sure run :

    make clean
    make
    
    

    For your information, here is my automake version :

    $ automake --version

    if it still doesn't work, please run :

    export LANG=C
    make distclean
    ./autogen.sh
    ./configure
    make
    
    

    and attach commands output here.

    if you tell me this output mean it's all right I don't wich could be my problem! at first I download libiphone ./autogen ./configure make sudo make install libiphone-initconf (it generates keys) Download iFuse ./autogen ./configure make sudo make install (my user is in fuse group)

    mount -t ifuse - it return with - mount: unknown filesystem type 'ifuse'

    so I understand iFuse isn't installed but I don't understand were issues is!

    • Tag changed from libiphone to ifuse, patch
    • Title changed from “Cannot make libiphone and iFuse” to “ifuse documentation is wrong”

    Actually README contain misleading information. The file-system type is 'fuse.ifuse' and not 'ifuse'

    the right command is

    mount -t fuse.ifuse <device file> <mountpoint>
    
    

    attached is a patch that fix the doc.
