So in the install of ntfs3g (following the BLFS stable 8.0 book) , I saw this message:
Code:
****************************************************************************
* WARNING WARNING WARNING WARNING WARNING WARNING WARNING WARNING *
* The FUSE user space binaries were NOT installed with root directory *
* executable prefix. This means that automounting NTFS volumes during boot *
* could fail. This can be fixed the below way by reinstalling FUSE using *
* the right 'configure' option during FUSE compilation: *
* ./configure --exec-prefix=/ *
* make && sudo make install *
* WARNING WARNING WARNING WARNING WARNING WARNING WARNING WARNING *
****************************************************************************
You can type now 'make' to build ntfs-3g.
Since the way the message said to ./configure was not the way the book said to do it, I ignored it and pressed on. No obvious errors have occurred (though I have yet to mount a ntfs partition).
The book made no warning about that warning.
Can anyone explain? Thank you in advance.
