[SOLVED] Problem compiling under Ubuntu 7.10

[Fightspit]

Hi everybody,

I am trying to compile Celestia from the SVN (svn co https://celestia.svn.sourceforge.net/sv ... stia/trunk celestia ) but I get an error after writing ./configure --with-gnome:

Code: Select all

francois@francois-laptop:~/Bureau/celestia$ ./configure --with-gnome
checking build system type... i686-pc-linux-gnu
checking host system type... i686-pc-linux-gnu
checking target system type... i686-pc-linux-gnu
./configure: line 2008: syntax error near unexpected token `-Wno-portability'
./configure: line 2008: `AM_INIT_AUTOMAKE(-Wno-portability)'


The last version is 4110 (it shows when you write svn up in the console).

So ?

When I ran autoreconf -iv and then ran ./configure --with-gnome I didn't get any configure errors with Suse 10.2.
I didn't get any configure errors after running make -f Makefile.cvs and then./configure --with-gnome so I'm not sure what could be going wrong.
I used the same svn version as you.

Thanks cartrite

I run as you said autoreconf -iv then ./configure --with-gnome
and it works

[cartrite]

May I ask, How did you get a configure script to run before you ran autoreconf -iv? I don't think there is one in the svn folder. You have to generate it somehow.

I remember I ran autoconf before writing ./configure --with-gnome but I think I couldn't compile because I didn't add the options -iv after autoconf. Just write autoconf is not enough probably.

Opensuse 10.3 updated


thanks and y hope a help,

[cartrite]

I did hear about problems compiling with open SUSE 10.3 but I was not affected ( I use openSUSE 10.2 ) and I'm not sure what was going on. These problems may have been fixed. The latest svn version is 4123. Try updating your svn copy to 4123.

No problems to compile svn 4123 with SuSE 10.3 and KDE, gnome and gtk.

I think the kde includes are in /opt/kde3/include not /usr/include.
You need to set the KDE_INCLUDES variable to point to the right place. This can probably be done on the ./configure line but I'm not sure of the exact syntax.
EDIT
******************************************
But it looks like the file kfilemetainfo.h is found in usr/include on your system. My version of that file is in opt/kde3/include. Maybe something changed in SUSE 10.3? Weird. Maybe Fridger can help you.
