compiling fails

[Diederick de Vries]

Hi everyone

I'm trying to compile cpufreq, but 

./configure 

fails after:

checking for sysfs/libsysfs.h... no
*********************************************************************
***            ERROR WHILE CONFIGURING LIBCPUFREQ                 ***
***     Failed to detect libsysfs header files and/or library     ***
*********************************************************************
*********************************************************************
***            ERROR WHILE CONFIGURING LIBCPUFREQ                 ***
*** At least one of /sys support or /proc support MUST be enabled ***
*********************************************************************
configure: error: At least one of /sys support or /proc support MUST be 
enabled
configure: error: /bin/sh './configure' failed for libcpufreq

However, I have SYSFS and PROC_FS both enabled in my kernel (v2.6.16) and I 
have have sysfsutils installed in /usr/lib (header files are 
in /usr/include/sysfs). Why can't the configure script find this?

Thanks for any help,
Diederick de Vries.

strange! do you really have /usr/include/sysfs/libsysfs.h ?

It won't probably help, but anyway you should try the latest version
(001) from:
http://www.kernel.org/pub/linux/utils/kernel/cpufreq/cpufrequtils.html

Yes. Really ;-)

Well, it compiled without errors. (but there no configure script anymore)

Thanks,
