I've downloaded the Cinelerra source from:
http://heroinewarrior.com/download.php3I run configure without any issues. When I run make, I get the following error:
$ make make -f build/Makefile.cinelerra sh: -c: line 1: syntax error: unexpected end of file make[1]: Entering directory `/home/rmcgowan/src/multimedia/cinelerra-2.0'gcc -c -O2 -fomit-frame-pointer -falign-loops=2 -falign-jumps=2 -falign-functions=2 -D_LARGEFILE_SOURCE -D_LARGEFILE64_SOURCE -D_FILE_OFFSET_BITS=64 -I../../freetype-2.1.4/include -I../../ -DHAVE_OSS -DHAVE_FIREWIRE soundtest.c -o i686/soundtest.o
Assembler messages: FATAL: can't create i686/soundtest.o: No such file or directory make[1]: *** [i686/soundtest.o] Error 1 make[1]: Leaving directory `/home/rmcgowan/src/multimedia/cinelerra-2.0' make: *** [all] Error 2The reason is that the directory 'i686' does not exist. On investigation, I find this line in the file 'global_config':
$(shell sh -c 'if ! test -d $(OBJDIR)\; then mkdir $(OBJDIR)\; fi' )Which, as far as I can tell, is supposed to create directory. The value of OBJDIR may be 'i686', based on an 'if' test near the beginning of the file that sets the value of PLUGINDIR.
Note that the first error is in regard to 'sh: -c: ...', so I've experimented with this type of line in a test makefile. If I remove the backslashes, and actually assign the non-existent output to a variable, and so on, I can eventually get it to create a directory.
It would seem to me that this is such an obvious problem that it would have been found and fixed quickly. Since it hasn't, I wonder if the build setup is designed for use with some other 'make' program than the standard Gnu make?
As it happens in a half dozen different places and I've not been able to grep out the locations of all of them, I'm stuck.
Any suggestions welcome.FYI, I thought if I could get the source from SVN, I might be able to get around this, but my connection to the svn server is rejected. This may be a firewall problem so I'll be trying to do the same checkout of source later from a different system that hopefully has no firewall problems. Meaning this may become moot for me. ;-)
Thanks, Bob
