[Digikam-users] trying to install 0.9.4

[Martin Fisher]

Hello All

In working on a wiki page for compiling Digikam under Ubuntu I thought I
should include a how to for compiling the doc as well. But 

./configure --prefix=/usr

ends with

checking if doc should be compiled... yes
configure: creating ./config.status
wrong input (flag != 4) at admin/conf.change.pl line 117, <> line 1259.
config.status: creating Makefile
config.status: error: cannot find input file: doc/Makefile.in

Does anybody know what this means?

Thanks, Martin
