Re: make error: dir-ops.cc:61: error: ‘ strerror ’ is not a member of ‘ gnulib ’

Turns out the error does not appear on debian testing, only on stable.
This means that there are some libraries which are old on stable, but
that the testing version is sufficiently recent that the error does not
appear.

However, I don't know which library that is, so I can update it and move on... and I can't just upgrade the whole system to testing, that would create way more problems than it would solve...

I have tried attaching the gzipped config.log file, but it's too big and the list refuses it. However, I can send it on direct email to anyone who might want to take a look at it...

libtool:

-I../libcruft/misc -g -O2 -DHAVE_CONFIG_H -Wall -W -Wshadow
