Failed installation on Ubuntu 14.04 LTS about binwalk HOT 7 CLOSED

By the way, my /usr/local/lib/ does not contain these files.

from binwalk.

Copying the files form src/C/file-5.18/src/.libs and the like to /usr/local/lib and running ldconfig fixes the problem. Might want to put that into the build script.

This is a bug due to a recent commit in which the install target in the Makefile was modified, and the line to actually install the dependency libraries was accidentally removed; it has now been fixed. Thanks!

I have the same issue on OS X 10.9:

@ebertek copying the *.dylibs from /src/binwalk/libs/ to /usr/local/lib/ fixed this for me 👍 (this was on OS X 10.10 not Ubuntu, did not notice that until now lol)

from binwalk.

In the download folder src/binwalk/libs/ doesn't comes anything. :S where can i find this files?

from binwalk.

Aleady get it.

First in installation folder run:

./configure
Then
make
Last:
sudo make install

Copy libs inside src/binwalk/libs folder into /usr/local/lib/ like sneaky said and wuala...

BR. Thankx!!!
