1.5.1 tarball on GNU/linux

[Matevz Tadel]

Hi,

Just downloaded glew-1.5.1-src.tgz and tried compiling it on fedora 7.
Had to do:

   fromdos config/config.guess

as it turned out the file had dos line-endings and this prevented the script
from being executed with the following error:

mtadel@alieve glew> make
/bin/sh: config/config.guess: /bin/sh^M: bad interpreter: No such file or directory
/bin/sh: config/config.guess: /bin/sh^M: bad interpreter: No such file or directory
Makefile:40: *** "Platform '' not supported".  Stop.


As 'svn pg svn:eol-style config/config.guess' says 'native', this probably means
the tarball was created on a windows machine.

I'm not sure ... but probably it would make sense to change 'eol-style' to 'LF'.
The counter case would be cygwin users using CRLF line-endings, if there are any.

Best,
Matevz

Yes,

This is a known problem specific to the 1.5.1 release,
which seemed to be a once-off.  See bug 2274802.

Thanks for the report.
