yaffs2utils-latest.tar.gz doesn't build

[GoogleCodeExporter]

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. Download the latest tarball
2. Extract it, enter the directory
3. Run 'make'

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?

I would expect to see it compile, instead it says:
cc: yaffs_ecc.c: Bestand of map bestaat niet
and I notice that it's create a symlink:
lrwxrwxrwx 1 robin robin    12 2010-08-08 18:09 yaffs_ecc.c -> /yaffs_ecc.c

What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?

The -lastest tarball on Ubuntu 10.04

Dear eythian:

Did you modify the definition of "YAFFS2DIR" in the top-level Makefile? 
This efinition is specified to the YAFFS2 source, and it will create 
links to the necessary files in the YAFFS2 source directory before 
building the full package.

Thanks for your replay.

I did. yaffs_ecc.c doesn't exist in the archive at all.

Dear eythian:

I found some character used in the "YAFFS2DIR" definition will cause this 
problem.

Example I:
Definition: YAFFS2DIR  =  ~/tmpdir/yaffs2
Result    : Error

Example II:
Definition: YAFFS2DIR  = /home/luenyung/tmpdir/yaffs2
Result    : OK

Would you try to use the absolute path first?
I will try finding the better solution.

Dear eythian:

Would you kindly share your top-level Makefile to me to test the patch?

Thanks a lot!
