[EP-tech] Re: eprints-3.3.12.tar.gz ./configure fault

Problem now fixed and files.eprints.org is up-to-date, thanks for reporting the issue. 

Seb.
PS: some background info: the configure script had been changed to install EP as the current user, whilst it used to default to 'eprints:eprints'. I've reverted to that.

Hello,

Yep you're correct, I can recreate this issue on Ubuntu.

While I'm trying to fix this, you may run the following command:

./configure --with-user=eprints --with-group=eprints

hi

when installing eprints-3.3.12.tar.gz
the ./configure script checks for user root?
- checking whether to check the user root exists... yes
- checking whether the user root exists... no
- configure: error: User root does not appear to exist
- break!

user root and eprints exist. script is running as root.

hostsystem: opensuse12.3 x64

this might be a fault in the configure script?
