hello all, i needed to workaround a libtool `directory not ending in' error by adding an extra slash in a path. the ``patch'' is attached. i successfully built monetdb may 2009 sp2 with # ./monetdb-install.sh --enable-sql --enable-xquery on freebsd 7.2 release. in the attachment i include some installed packages/dependencies in case someone needs them. thanx, lazaros. -- http://www.ics.forth.gr/~koromil
