install issues #326

Closed UnConundrum closed 6 years ago

UnConundrum commented 6 years ago

I'm having problems installing on Ubuntu 17.10. Make install has the following errors:

/usr/bin/install: './ZnapZend.pm' and '/opt/znapzend-0.17.0/lib/./ZnapZend.pm' are the same file Makefile:275: recipe for target 'install-nobase_dataDATA' failed make[2]: [install-nobase_dataDATA] Error 1 make[2]: Leaving directory '/opt/znapzend-0.17.0/lib' Makefile:348: recipe for target 'install-am' failed make[1]: [install-am] Error 2 make[1]: Leaving directory '/opt/znapzend-0.17.0/lib' Makefile:473: recipe for target 'install-recursive' failed make: *** [install-recursive] Error 1

Any help would be appreciated

NEVER NEVER NEVER try to install znapzend (or any software) into the same directory where you unpacked the source ...

Sorry, didn't realize the meaning of the --prefix switch and I just copied your suggested commands verbatim.
