$ tuxtype<br>
Error - VAR_PREFIX = '/usr/var/tuxtype' not found!<br>
</blockquote><div><br>"make install" of tuxtype now creates a path for localstatedir. This is being done so that teachers/parents can modify word and phrase lists. The GNU coding standards (which is what the autotools follow) say that localstatedir should be $prefix/var, hence our package's directory would be /usr/var/tuxtype if $prefix = /usr. However, the LSB and FHS say localstatedir should be something under /var, typically /var/lib (and the tuxtype directory would be /var/lib/tuxtype). Thus, tuxtype needs to be configured with "--localstatedir=/var/lib" and the package installation needs to create /var/lib and /var/lib/tuxtype. Similarly, we are going to put tuxtype's global settings in the proper location under /etc which will be "/etc/tuxtype". This requires a configure flag of "--sysconfdir=/etc". I use the following args in the specfile to build the rpms:<br>
<br>%configure --disable-rpath \<br> --prefix=%_prefix \<br> --localstatedir=%_localstatedir \<br> --sysconfdir=%_sysconfdir <br><br>However, tuxtype does not yet actually use either of these new locations. So, for now it makes sense to have the path check messages only show up if debug is turned on.<br>

LoadSound() - could not load click.wav<br>
<br>
I wonder what the issue with click.wav is - it's installed<br>
in /usr/share/tuxtype/data/sounds/click.wav...<br>
<br></blockquote><div><br>I don't know about that one - will check.<br><br>Hope that helps,<br><br>David<br> </div></div>
