Usually no harm done.

See './configure --help' for the location of the various installation directories. <blockquote cite="mid:CAO4+0dEv-7VSxihy-TjUzqDQwu0f5dhWnE0EsMb4OL4AJdf8dw@mail.gmail.com" type="cite"> <pre wrap=""> make install make[1]: Entering directory `/home/me/tmp/xf86driproto-2.1.1' make[1]: Nothing to be done for `install-exec-am'.</pre> </blockquote> This is the default make target which is a prereq to the 'install' target. Given this is a protcol header, nothing gets compiled and linked. <blockquote cite="mid:CAO4+0dEv-7VSxihy-TjUzqDQwu0f5dhWnE0EsMb4OL4AJdf8dw@mail.gmail.com" type="cite"> <pre wrap=""> test -z "/usr/local/lib/pkgconfig" || /bin/mkdir -p\ "/usr/local/lib/pkgconfig" /usr/bin/install -c -m 644 xf86driproto.pc '/usr/local/lib/pkgconfig'</pre> </blockquote> This step has installed the xf86driproto.pc file in /usr/local/lib.

If you have somehow supressed terminal output or somehow disabled "stop on error", you will not be informed that files cannot be installed at the location you specified when you don't have permissions to do so. You should be something like this: /usr/bin/install: cannot create regular file `/usr/local/lib/pkgconfig/xf86driproto.pc': Permission denied <blockquote cite="mid:CAO4+0dEv-7VSxihy-TjUzqDQwu0f5dhWnE0EsMb4OL4AJdf8dw@mail.gmail.com" type="cite"> <pre wrap=""> Any help? thxs a lot... ubu 12.04 _______________________________________________ <a class="moz-txt-link-abbreviated" href="mailto:xorg@lists.x.org">xorg@lists.x.org</a>: X.Org support Archives: <a class="moz-txt-link-freetext" href="http://lists.freedesktop.org/archives/xorg">http://lists.freedesktop.org/archives/xorg</a> Info: <a class="moz-txt-link-freetext" href="http://lists.x.org/mailman/listinfo/xorg">http://lists.x.org/mailman/listinfo/xorg</a> Your subscription address: <a class="moz-txt-link-abbreviated" href="mailto:memsize@videotron.ca">memsize@videotron.ca</a> </pre> </blockquote> </body> </html>
