Re: [bug-gsrc] Failure to compile lsh

[Jean Louis]

Hello Carl,

Thank for helping.

in ~/gnu/lib, I have:
libnettle.a
libnettle.so
libnettle.so.6
libnettle.so.6.2

and I have also these inside:

./bin/nettle-lfib-stream
./bin/nettle-pbkdf2
./bin/nettle-hash
./include/nettle
./include/nettle/nettle-stdint.h
./include/nettle/nettle-meta.h
./include/nettle/nettle-types.h

GSRC is excellent idea for those who like to use some of software not
otherwise packaged in their distributions. It is good for learning and
modifying. If lsh compile works automatically, I could replace SSH for
LSH, which was my intention.
