James E. King, III commented on THRIFT-3071:
--------------------------------------------
The result of the change is:
{noformat}~/thrift$ sh bootstrap.sh
automake version 1.11.3 is too old (need 1.13 or later){noformat}
(that is from an Ubuntu 12.04.1 LTS system)
> bootstrap.sh on Ubuntu 12.04 (Precise) automake error

> Key: THRIFT-3071
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/THRIFT-3071
> Project: Thrift
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: Build Process
> Affects Versions: 0.9.3
> Environment: Ubuntu 12.04.1 LTS
> Reporter: James E. King, III
> Priority: Minor
>
> Ubuntu 12.04 contains automake-1.11, and the bootstrap.sh script requires
> 1.13 or later:
> {code}
> ~/dev/thrift$ ./bootstrap.sh
> configure.ac:103: warning: macro `AM_EXTRA_RECURSIVE_TARGETS' not found in
> library
> configure.ac:103: error: possibly undefined macro: AM_EXTRA_RECURSIVE_TARGETS
> If this token and others are legitimate, please use m4_pattern_allow.
> See the Autoconf documentation.{code}
> A workaround for this issue is to install automake-1.14 via community PPA:
> {noformat}
> # add-apt-repository ppa:dns/gnu
> # apt-get update
> # apt-get install automake
> {noformat}
> bootstrap.sh should check the version of automake and emit a nicer error
> message when 1.13 or later is not available.
