[Gluster-users] Problems building glusterfs-1.4.0rc7

[Filipe Maia]

Hi,

I tried building RC7 using the following options on my Debian Etch
x86_64 server:

glusterfs-1.4.0rc7# ./configure --prefix=/usr --disable-bdb
--disable-mod_glusterfs --disable-libglusterfsclient
...
GlusterFS configure summary
===========================
FUSE client        : no
Infiniband verbs   : yes
epoll IO multiplex : yes
Berkeley-DB        : no
libglusterfsclient : no
mod_glusterfs      : no ()
argp-standalone    : no

glusterfs-1.4.0rc7# make

So it seems to still try to link against libglusterfsclient even
thought i asked him not to build it.
Removing --disable-libglusterfsclient from the configure command makes
it work fine.

Seems to be just a small tweak in the configure scripts but I don't
really know where.
