Subject: Tiny buglet in README
I had to apply the patch with -p1, not with -p0. A few words about how to install that library would probably help. I had to add -fPIC to the Makefile and I had to refresh my memories about install commands. And I was pretty annoyed that this tarball untars into the current directory. Regards,
Thanks for the spot. It looks like there's a newer version of SVMLight that I should be patching against too, so I'll release a new version including your changes and whatever patch changes are necessary. -Ken
I've updated the README with some more explicit instructions. I didn't mention -fPIC because I don't understand it, and I didn't want to invite questions about it. =) I'll generate a release tonight when I'm near my gpg key. -Ken
