Re: [OATH-Toolkit-help] [sr #109049] .version-t: Permission denied error

     I think that you are only 'sudo-ing', so to speak, the  "./configure", and then trying to do the "make" and "make install" as a regular user. Try separate commands:

sudo ./configure

sudo make

sudo "make install"

     The quotes are necessary in the 3rd line, so that "make install" is passed to sudo instead of just "make". In fact, it might be interesting to see what happens with:

sudo  "./configure && make && make install" ,

maybe you'd even need:

sudo  "./configure && make && 'make install' ".

Details:

Hello,

I have downloaded 2.6.1-1 (current stable version) for Ubuntu and I get the
following error when installing:

configure: summary of build options:

version: 2.6.1
Install prefix: /usr/local
Compiler: gcc
Build PAM module: no
PSKC: no

echo 2.6.1 > .version-t && mv .version-t .version
/bin/bash: .version-t: Permission denied
make: *** [.version] Error 1

Command i have entered:
sudo ./configure && make && make install

My OS is ubuntu 14.04 LTS.

I have also tried with 2.6.1 (supported) and I get the same error.

Can you please help me with this?
