Re: [bug-inetutils] PATH_WTMP in logwtmp.c

[Michael Geng]

I'm running a normal PC (Intel 686) and Debian Linux (etch).

config.h contains

/* Define to 1 if you have the `updwtmp' function. */
#define HAVE_UPDWTMP 1

/* Define to 1 if you have the `updwtmpx' function. */
#define HAVE_UPDWTMPX 1

and libinetutils/Makefile contains

CONFIG_HEADER = $(top_builddir)/config.h
...
AM_CPPFLAGS = $(PATHDEF_WTMPX) $(PATHDEF_TTY_PFX) $(PATHDEF_DEVNULL) 
$(PATHDEF_HEQUIV)
...
PATHDEF_WTMP = -DPATH_WTMP=\"/var/log/wtmp\"
PATHDEF_WTMPX = -DPATH_WTMPX=\"$(localstatedir)/log/wtmpx\"

Thanks for your reply but I'm afraid I need more help. I still don't know
if I'm doing something wrong, something's broken in the cvs archive or 
something's wrong with my environment.
