Sometime on Aug 14, Satya assembled some asciibets to say:
I found this in the configure file:
echo $ac_n "checking for r00taxx in -lr00t""... $ac_c" 1>&6 echo "configure:3429: checking for r00taxx in -lr00t" >&5 ac_lib_var=`echo r00t'_'r00taxx | sed 'y%./+-%__p_%'` if eval "test "`echo '$''{'ac_cv_lib_$ac_lib_var'+set}'`" =
[snip]
Ok, downloaded it and had a closer look at the execution. It tries to execute a function called r00taxx() in libr00t, but fails on my system. It writes to the Makefile before it does this step. configure, and configure.in
It does not come up anywhere else, so I don't know why it was put in there. Maybe just to scare you.
