Hello Martin,
It's in the installation script
parcels/boxbackup-0.10-backup-client-linux-gnu/install-backup-client
Under normal circumstances (i.e. installation into /usr/local) the script will work
because all the directories exist. However, because I specified a non-standard
location for the BB executables, the script doesn't work. There are two solutions ...
A) Create the required directory BEFORE running 'make install-backup-client' with
mkdir -p /usr/local/boxbackup-0.10/bin OR
B) Modify parcels/boxbackup-0.10-backup-client-linux-gnu/install-backup-client
to include the following line just after the #!/bin/bash line ...
install -d /usr/local/boxbackup-0.10/bin
Looks like a configuration problem.
Regards,
Dave
