[etherlab-users] problems making etherlab (+ other issues)

[Richard Hacker (MSc Eng)]

Hi Dusty,

I see that your system is using dash as the standard shell instead of the 
usual (ba)sh. The echo builtin of dash does not accept -e as a switch like  
bash does, and that is why you get a stray -e in kernel-cflags.c.

I will remove this non-portable switch in future releases. For now, please 
edit the file
etherlab-src/tools/rt_appcore/Kbuild
and remove -e from the echo line 20

Hope this builds then

- Richard
