[PATCH] Fails to build with autoconf 2.52
Last modified: 2004-12-22 21:47:04 UTC
bonobo 1.0.17 fails to build with autoconf 2.52/automake 1.5. I will attach a patch against the sources of version 1.0.17. After applying it, it must be executed | autoreconf -i -f This method REQUIRES the intltools do be installed and conflicts with old xml-i18n-tools (the perl-interpreter macroname has been changed there). Description of changes: ======================= - constructs like 'CLEANFILES += ....' and 'LDFLAGS += ...' are removed; automake rejects them because '+=' works only with GNU make. - libefs/configure.in: * fixed broken quotening; autoconf 2.52 handles this more strict * added AM_MAINTAINER_MODE; this make life easier for people just wanting to compile it... - gshell/Makefile.am * removed duplicate 'uidir' statements; automake rejects them - Makefile.am * added 'ACLOCAL_AMFLAGS= -I macros' which allows autoreconf to work - test/Makefile.am * removed trailing '\' on a comment; automake 1.5 interprets the next non-text line as comment also. This may be a automake bug, but there are not any drawbacks when removing the '\'...
Created attachment 6281 [details] [review] Patch against 1.0.17
michael: is this useful/relevant anymore?
The majority of this is now fixed in CVS - can you re-open a bug if you have further issues ? Thanks for your report.
