Reason is, that the autoconf framework does not handle well relative paths given in the "--with-dahdi" option, which is specified in the top-level Makefile.

To work around, change in the top level Makefile the line

(cd tools && [ -f config.status ] || ./configure --with-dahdi=../linux)

to

(cd tools && [ -f config.status ] || ./configure --with-dahdi=/put/absolute/path/here/linux)

for not having relative paths but absolute paths.

Of course this does not solve this issue.


P.S.: JIRE does not know of version 2.11.1, so I had to falsely state "2.10.0" as affected version.
