Linux pluto 2.6.22.2 #6 SMP Sun Aug 12 11:44:04 EDT 2007 i686 i686 i386 GNU/Linux
>Description:
The pkgfind package fails to build on Linux systems because NO_CONFIGURE is set in its Makefile. Because NO_CONFIGURE is set, the "pre-configure" target defined in inplace.mk by the libnbcompat package gets skipped and libnbcompat doesn't get configured or built. Removing NO_CONFIGURE=yes corrects the problem on Linux.
>How-To-Repeat:
Try to build pkgfind under Linux.
>Fix:
Remove NO_CONFIGURE=yes
