No, it didn't. I had followed the instructions on the page you refer to first before I tried hunting for other suggestions. Sorry I didn't make this clear. I was trying aclocal as part of a sequence of suggestions from the posting a year ago from Sean Kelly: ---------------- To save you look up time, here's what I did from start to finish. 1. Downloaded and unpacked the RPCEmu source code http://www.marutan.net/rpcemu/cgi/download.php?sFName=0.8.11/rpcemu-0.8.11.tar.gz 2. Used the software manager in Mint to install liballegro4.2 and liballegro4.2-plugin-jack and liballegro4 liballegro4-dev. 3. Copied (I could have moved) allegro.m4 from /usr/local/share/aclocal/ to /usr/share/aclocal/ 4. Opened a terminal and issued the following commands - I know these shouldn't all be required, but it's what worked for me, eventually, as neither the deprecated nor the latest instructions on marutan.net worked. I'm thinking make clean won't be required for you, since it will all hopefully work first time. cd rpcemu/src/ aclocal automake autoconf make clean LIBS="-lm -lpthread" ./configure --enable-dynarec make Then it was just a matter of copying the ROMs etc. ---------------- My symptoms had been the same as those he reported a year ago, but I had no allegro.m4 file anywhere in /usr I have now had a go at copying allegro.m4 from my old laptop onto the Ubuntu 10.04 laptop and RPCEmu now compiles. I am not sure which package is supposed to supply the allegro.m4 file. I was not able to install liballegro 4.2 as Ubuntu's oldest offering is 4.4. I don't know whether that would explain what happened. -- Matthew Phillips Durham _______________________________________________ Rpcemu mailing list [email protected] http://www.riscos.info/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/rpcemu
