Guy,

I think the problem is that the calls to the test programs in the
makeshape.sh are not specific about the path to the executables, and
you don't have the current directory in the path (common with root).

try changing the lines like this in makeshape.sh:

shpcreate test polygon
dbfcreate test.dbf -s Description 30 -n TestInt 6 0 -n TestDouble 16 5

to be like this:

./shpcreate test polygon
./dbfcreate test.dbf -s Description 30 -n TestInt 6 0 -n TestDouble 16 5

Let me know if this works,and I'll fix it up stream.  It does look like
the build worked fine.  The cvs_id warnings are nothing.


Best regards,
