Yes, it needs more explanation. What are the names of the files you added? How _exactly_ did you change the Makefile.in? Show like this: copy the original file to Makefile.in.orig and paste diff -u Makefile.in.orig Makefile.in Also show how it fails. Copy and paste, do not only use prose to explain technical issues. Please read http://www.chiark.greenend.org.uk/~sgtatham/bugs.html carefully. It is available in several translations, too. I'm sorry but if you don't follow those guidelines I'll be unable to help you. Cheers, Ralf
