Re: [COOT] subversion build on ubuntu 9.04 fails : [: =: unary operator expected error

I have the following guile-like stuff installed, if it is of any help:

I've also noticed that sometimes what the configure error reports  
isn't accurate when you look at the log files -- it might be choking  
on something else.

Hello ,
The jaunty 32 bit build seems to fail ( with subversion revision  
2002 as
well)
It seems like based on what Ed Pozharsky wrote in ..its a problem  
with guile
in Ubuntu jaunty (9.04) ..

On my 32 bit , 9.04 installation , the build-it-gtk2-simple script  
chugs
along fine and then declares the following contradictory message

checking for Clipper... yes
Congratulations, you are using Guile

Regardless ..I will try Bill Scots or the CCP4 wiki

Hi ..I tried a coot subversion (revision 1994) built-it-simple  
python on
the newest ubuntu 9.04

The build crashes just after it builds guile and ( 16-coot.txt in  
the
build directory ) reads :

checking for Clipper... yes

configure: error: guile required but not found

NO need to update libtool
/home/hari/autobuild/ex-charlie_2009-05-08__T20_14_49/coot-0.6-pre-1
make: *** No targets specified and no makefile found.  Stop.

This happens only on the new ubuntu (on a 32 bit 9.04 system) .
I was able to build this revision without any problem on Ubuntu  
8.04 64
bit


Thanks update_libtool is not set sometimes, so using it as in 1994 is
wrong.  I've tweaked the script.

But the problem for you lies above that..
checking for guile... no
configure: error: guile required but not found

Hmm!  what went wrong there..?

I'll try to build from scratch on Jaunty myself.

Cheers,

Paul.
