I've used CPPFLAGS and LDFLAGS to make SleuthKit link against libewf
successfully on OS X.  e.g.,

  LDFLAGS="-L/path/to/ewf/lib" CPPFLAGS="-I/path/to/ewf/include"
./configure [options]

Not the most elegant, but it works.

From: John Howland <john.d.howland@...>
Subject: [sleuthkit-users] libewf support on MacOS X
To: sleuthkit-users@...

Preface: I'm a total newb; today is my first day playing around with tsk.

Two questions:

1. Has anyone successfully built tsk on MacOS X with libewf support? If
so, how?

I did a plain vanilla source install of libewf on OS X 10.5. I then
built tsk, successfully. However, it seems to think E01s are raw
images. It looks like configure is at least seeing libewf, given this
snippet:

...
checking libewf.h usability... yes
checking libewf.h presence... yes
checking for libewf.h... yes
checking for libewf_open in -lewf... no
configure: creating ./config.status
...

'img_stat -i list' only gives the following, though:

Supported image format types:
        raw (Single raw file (dd))
        split (Split raw files)

Any pointers would be much appreciated.

2. This is probably more of a stretch, but is there any way to tell
the sleuthkit's configure script to look in a specific directory for
the libewf install? For example, I'd like to be able to install
tsk+libewf in ~/cftools on systems where I don't have administrative
privileges, where ~/cftools would be akin to /usr/local.

thanks!

John

This is actually pretty standard, Rob. Your problems go away if libewf  
is installed in a normal location that TSK's configure file checks.

Currently Sleuthkit only checks /usr/bin and /usr/local/bin:

# Not all compilers include /usr/local in the include and link path
if test -d /usr/local/include; then
     CFLAGS="$CFLAGS -I/usr/local/include"
     LDFLAGS="$LDFLAGS -L/usr/local/lib"
fi

AFFLIB tests many additional directories:

# Bring additional directories where things might be found into our
# search path. I don't know why autoconf doesn't do this by default
for spfx in /usr/local /opt/local /sw ${prefix} ; do
     echo checking ${spfx}/include
     if test -d ${spfx}/include; then
         CPPFLAGS="-I${spfx}/include $CPPFLAGS"
         LDFLAGS="-L${spfx}/lib $LDFLAGS"
     fi
done

You might want to ask Brian C. to add my tests to the SleuthKit  
distribution.

Hi Simson,

Your fix doesn't solve the problem at hand though. In this case, the  
user has installed libewf in his home directory. Adding more system  
locations to search won't solve that.   I think the existing code  
exists because 'configure' was finding libraries that were in  
directories that the complier was not configured to look at (and this  
fix added those to the build process instead of making the user change  
their setup).

I created issue 2893521 to add a feature to 'configure' so that you  
can specify the locations of libewf and afflib if they aren't found  
from the search.

thanks,
brian

Hi, Brian,

Actually, if the user specified --prefix=$HOME, my fix handles it.

But I agree that it is useful to be able to specify libewf and afflib  
locations.

I can see that, but it's enough for my purposes to be able to specify
the same --prefix paths for both libewf and tsk.

Oh yea, I didn't notice that ${prefix} was in your list. However,  
'configure' uses --prefix for the target location for the current  
build, so using it would require that TSK be installed in the same  
place as libewf or AFFLIB (may not be a bad assumption, but may not  
always be true).

I just fixed it on the trunk. From the notes:

Fixed. --with-libewf=dir and --with-afflib=dir can be used.  --without-
afflib and --without-libewf should now be used instead of --disable-
libewf and --disable-afflib.

thanks,
brian

Not always true, but a good assumption. Besides, it doesn't hurt to check....
