It looks good from there too: asbr01-lab /usr/local/src/bird # birdc -s /run/bird.ctl BIRD v2.0.3-12-g6e8fb668 ready.
It’s not related to OSPF, but there is an error in INSTALL: asbr01-lab /usr/local/src # git clone https://gitlab.labs.nic.cz/labs/bird.git asbr01-lab /usr/local/src # cd bird/ asbr01-lab /usr/local/src/bird # git checkout 6e8fb66859a17b295cd9246264221a75cdbe6c55 asbr01-lab /usr/local/src/bird # cat INSTALL […] Default location for configuration file is /usr/local/etc/bird.conf and for control socket is /usr/local/var/run/bird.ctl . You can change that by --prefix, --sysconfdir and --runstatedir configure options, e.g.:
$ ./configure --prefix=/usr --sysconfdir=/etc --runstatedir=/run […] asbr01-lab /usr/local/src/bird # autoreconf asbr01-lab /usr/local/src/bird # ./configure --prefix=/usr --sysconfdir=/etc --runstatedir=/run configure: error: unrecognized option: `--runstatedir=/run'
This depends on version/variant of autoconf tools. Older ones do not support --runstatedir. INSTALL instructions are intended for released tar.gz source, which contains configure generated by proper autoconf version. AFAIK autoconf in Debian Stable (and newer) is OK. -- Elen sila lumenn' omentielvo Ondrej 'Santiago' Zajicek (email: santiago@crfreenet.org) OpenPGP encrypted e-mails preferred (KeyID 0x11DEADC3, wwwkeys.pgp.net) "To err is human -- to blame it on a computer is even more so."
