[DRBD-user] Compiling 9 from Source?

Note: "permalinks" may not be as permanent as we would like,
direct links of old sources may well be a few messages off.


The process I'm used to is...

./configure <options>
make
make install
cd drbd
make clean all

You're saying the whole process has been reduced to...

make

...?

Yes, these damn LINBIT people, it is all a conspiracy, they give you the source and don't want you to build it!!1!.

But I was able to leak that top secret information and can tell you how we do it internally: We type "make" (and install the kernel headers before)...
