I just checked out the trunk from savannah and ran autoreconf -i -s as instructed in the README.cvs and got this error:
$ autoreconf -i -s ... Makefile.am: required file `./README' not found configure.in:380: required file `./build.sh.in' not found Makefile.am: installing `config/compile' Makefile.am:3: installing `./ansi2knr.c' Makefile.am:3: installing `./ansi2knr.1' Makefile.am: installing `config/depcomp' doc/Makefile.am:6: installing `config/texinfo.tex' autoreconf: automake failed with exit status: 1 The configure went fine, it seems, then I ran step three "make update" and got: [EMAIL PROTECTED] make]$ make update wget --passive-ftp --non-verbose ftp://ftp.gnu.org/gnu/config/config.guess -O ./config/config.guess No such file `config.guess'. Looking on ftp.gnu.org we see that gnu/config contains config.guess.back-RNS.README indicating the file has been pulled due to the recent unpleasantness on ftp.gnu.org. Mindlessly forging ahead I run "make" and get: ... make[3]: Entering directory `/home/mecklen/src/make/trunk/make/po' /usr/local/bin/msgmerge --update da.po make.pot /usr/local/bin/msgmerge: error while opening "da.po" for reading: No such file or directory make[3]: *** [da.po] Error 1 make[3]: Leaving directory `/home/mecklen/src/make/trunk/make/po' make[2]: *** [stamp-po] Error 2 make[2]: Leaving directory `/home/mecklen/src/make/trunk/make/po' make[1]: *** [all-recursive] Error 1 make[1]: Leaving directory `/home/mecklen/src/make/trunk/make' make: *** [all] Error 2 I'm a newbie at building from the cvs source, what have I done wrong? Or should I just wait until config.guess returns? $ uname -a Linux gandalf 2.4.20-6 #1 Thu Feb 27 10:06:59 EST 2003 i686 i686 i386 GNU/Linux $ autoreconf --version autoreconf (GNU Autoconf) 2.57 ... $ automake --version automake (GNU automake) 1.7.7 ... $ gettext --version gettext (GNU gettext) 0.11.4 ...
