make install fails

[Kevin Godby]

Running "sudo make install" fails. To fix, remove the .in extensions from all the files in the zeitgeist/loggers/datasources/ dir.

Also, "sudo make install" fails to install some required files. Attached patch fixes this (at least partly).

Thank you for your patch, I've commited it to trunk.

That "make install" currently fails because of the renamed files is a known issue. Those files need to be fixed to work with the new engine (and according to the new database specification, http://live.gnome.org/GnomeZeitgeist/DatabaseDesign) and then renamed back.

Right now, installing Zeitgeist system-wide isn't recommended as we currently are in a transition to a new database model and doing lots of changes (like breaking the D-Bus API almost daily). However, expect a development preview (after which there'll be some stabilization effort) to be released within the next two weeks.

If I don't run "make install", then I get the following error when I run ./zeitgeist-daemon:

    /usr/local/bin/zeitgeist-datahub not found, not starting datahub

You get that error because you've run "make", which generated the zeitgeist/config.py with information about where it will be installed. To run Zeitgeist in-place just remove that file.
