Hi Everyone, Starting with rev 1124, I had been having a problem running ./config/autorun.sh on my mac. One of the error messages was: configure.ac:27: error: Autoconf version 2.62 or higher is required I chatted a little bit with MTaylor on irc about it, and he said we only needed autoconf 2.59 or greater.
I kept trying different things, like, using autoconf 2.62 or 2.63 and that still did not help. Today I finally found a way around it. I was using automake 1.11, so I decided to try automake 1.10.2. And that did the trick. I can now compile Drizzle again. Is there a good reason why we need to use an older automake? Thanks and you can see below the details of what I did. ================== revno: 1124 [merge] committer: Brian Aker <br...@gaz> branch nick: staging timestamp: Mon 2009-08-24 13:01:53 -0700 message: Merge Monty ================== $ ./config/autorun.sh Grabbing changelog and version information from bzr ./config/autorun.sh: running `python config/register_plugins.py' ./config/autorun.sh: running `/usr/bin/glibtoolize --automake --copy --force' ./config/autorun.sh: running `/opt/local/bin/aclocal-1.11 -I m4' configure.ac:27: error: Autoconf version 2.62 or higher is required /opt/local/share/aclocal-1.11/init.m4:110: AM_INIT_AUTOMAKE is expanded from... m4/pandora_canonical.m4:152: PANDORA_CANONICAL_TARGET is expanded from... configure.ac:27: the top level autom4te: /usr/bin/gm4 failed with exit status: 63 aclocal-1.11: autom4te failed with exit status: 63 Can't execute aclocal ================== $ autoconf --version autoconf (GNU Autoconf) 2.61 Copyright (C) 2006 Free Software Foundation, Inc.
