Topic: Enabling Midnight Commander subshell - Kamikaze build verbosity

Hi guys,

I've just built Kamikaze to enable Midnight Commander subshell support but I didn't succeed - https://dev.openwrt.org/ticket/4418

I'd like to see what's going on during the build to trace this issue.  How can I do that?

Thanks in advance,
Laci

You can turn on verbose output during the build with:

make V=99

The mentioned option does work, thanks!

The build output states the subshell support is enabled but it's not actually enabled in practice.

Anyone knows what could be wrong?

I'm not at all sure this will help, but make sure that you have it enabled with "y" rather than "m". If it's just "m", openwrt will build it but will leave it out of the actual image, presumably for you to install later if you like.

I've build it as a module so I can install it on any OpenWrt host easily without setting up the whole system from the scratch.

I'll probably ask on the mc mailing list for help.

The discussion might have continued from here.
