guestfish seems to gag.
Apparently, I need supermin 5 to make things work.
So I downloaded supermin_5.1.9.orig.tar.gz. I unzipped to a source folder
/usr/local/src
Then I attempted to build from source using ./configure
I received this error:
config.status: error: cannot find input file: `src/supermin-link.sh.in’
I wonder if this is a missing file in that particular source tarball?
Try using the latest version. Something like this should work:
$ sudo apt-get build-dep supermin
$ wget http://libguestfs.org/download/supermin/supermin-5.1.13.tar.gz
$ zcat supermin-5.1.13.tar.gz | tar xf -
$ cd supermin-5.1.13/
$ ./configure
$ make
$ make check
