I recently discovered an issue with our automated build of proftpd. I changed the target branch from the ancient 1.3.5 branch to 1.3.6. When I tried building this branch, I got a failure in the mod_sftp directory.
In file included from mod_sftp.c:29:
./mod_sftp.h:29:10: fatal error: 'conf.h' file not found
#include "conf.h"
After a bunch of screwing around and ripping my hair out, I took the time to actually read the INSTALL file. It turns out that GNU Make is required. We have been using BSD Make, so there must have been a recent-ish change that causes make to fail.
