Minor build/install problem with libnasl

Subject: Minor build/install problem with libnasl

Hi

I'm having a minor problem building and installing libnasl

OS X 10.3.5
nessus 2.1.1, although this has been happening for me
the last couple of revisions.

I _do_ run sudo ./uninstall-nessus before attempting to build/install the
new version.

nessus-libraries apparently build and install without problems.

libnasl apparently builds correctly, but when I attempt to "make install"
I get the following:

/Users/claudel/temp/nessus/nessus-2.1.1/libnasl:78}sudo make install
make: `install' is up to date.

No files are installed anywhere.

nessus-core ./configure fails due to libnasl not being installed.
This is not surprising.

If I cd to libnasl/nasl and issue the sudo make install, then some files are
installed in their proper locations

/Users/claudel/temp/nessus/nessus-2.1.1/libnasl/nasl:88}sudo make install
Password:
test -d /usr/local/lib || /usr/bin/install -c -d -m 755 /usr/local/lib
test -d /usr/local/bin || /usr/bin/install -c -d -m 755 /usr/local/bin
/bin/sh /Users/claudel/temp/nessus/nessus-2.1.1/libnasl/libtool --silent
--mode install /usr/bin/install -c libnasl.la /usr/local/lib/libnasl.la

<snip install message>

/bin/sh /Users/claudel/temp/nessus/nessus-2.1.1/libnasl/libtool --silent
--finish /usr/local/lib
test -d /usr/local/bin || /usr/bin/install -c -d -m 755 /usr/local/bin
/usr/bin/install -c nasl /usr/local/bin/

Then I cd to ./libnasl and issue
sudo /usr/bin/install -c nasl.tmpl /usr/local/bin/
sudo /usr/bin/install -c nasl-config /usr/local/bin/

to install these 2 where they need to be


at this point the build and install seems to finish correctly, although I do
have "bad signature" issues loading plugins that I described in a different
messsage. My presumption is that the issues are not related.

Am I doing something wrong for the "make install" to fail in libnasl?

thanks again

Claude
