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!
