rep-gtk-0.18.3 autogen.sh broken
Last modified: 2009-08-16 15:18:30 UTC
Please describe the problem: The shipped autogen.sh fails to generate a configure script with libtool-1.5.24. Steps to reproduce: 1. unpack rep-gtk-0.18.3 2. run ./autogen.sh in rep-gtk-0.18.3 directory 3. Actual results: Running autoheader Running libtoolize You should add the contents of `/usr/share/aclocal/libtool.m4' to `aclocal.m4'. Running aclocal aclocal: couldn't open directory `m4': No such file or directory Expected results: A configure script should be generated. Does this happen every time? Yes. Other information: Apparently newer libtool versions work. But the autogen.sh script tests for libtool 1.5 which would suggest that it is suppose to work with libtool 1.5
mkdir m4 is the fix, just as aclocal says. closing, NOTABUG
