Public bug reported: Binary package hint: gnucash
The Gnucash-2.0.2 source package from the feisty repositories does not compile. The binary package seems to work, but I would prefer to build the package myself. 1) Install pre-requisites: sudo apt-get install build-essential devscripts fakeroot sudo apt-get build-dep gnucash 2) Create a folder to build the package, and download mkdir gnucash-deb cd gnucash-deb apt-get source gnucash 3) Attempt to build the package cd gnucash-2.0.2 dpkg-buildpackage -b -us -uc -rfakeroot Results of attempted build end with: #define HAVE_DLERROR 1 #define HAVE_LIBM 1 #define HAVE_GUILE 1 configure: exit 1 touch configure-stamp dh_testdir # dh_testroot dh_clean -k dh_installdirs make make[1]: Entering directory `/home/bobpaul/gnucash-deb/gnucash-2.0.2' make[1]: *** No targets specified and no makefile found.
