The origin of the problem seems to be libtool, specifically the utility libtoolize; I was able to reproduce the problem with libtool version 2.4.6 (from 2015), while an older machine with libtool 2.4.2 (from 2011) didn’t have the issue. Compilation was also fine on the newer machine with libtool 2.4.2. By trial and error I found that the following simple line near the top of configure.ac did the trick: AC_REQUIRE_AUX_FILE([depcomp]) I can’t really claim to know what I’m doing, but it seems to work. I’ve committed that line to the repository, so that compilation should work with a fresh copy; alternatively, in an old working directly, I’ve found that git clean -dfx did the trick of restoring a clean slate. Then you of course need to run git pull. Best, Arthur -- Subscriptions, Archive, and List information, etc.: http://tug.org/mailman/listinfo/xetex

Thanks a lot for this reply, Paul! I appreciate your taking the time to give the configure command that works for you on ubuntu 16.04.1. Next time I take a look at this I'll be sure to test it out. I would like to test the development version of XeTeX to see if all of the documents and examples we ship with LyX compile without problems.

Re: [XeTeX] depcomp erorr when building (and workaround)
I grabbed the latest TeX live from their repository a few hours ago and recompiled on Ubuntu 16.04.1 LTS, using: ../source/configure --prefix=$texmf \ --datarootdir=$texmf --mandir=$texmf/man --infodir=$texmf/info \ --disable-multiplatform --with-x --disable-native-texlive-build \ --with-system-libgs --with-xdvi-x-toolkit=xaw --with-system-icu \ --with-system-freetype2 --with-system-zlib \ --disable-devnag --disable-makejvf --disable-mendexk (I use my own directory structure, but it shouldn't affect ability to compile.) I was able to compile xetex without problem, and it ran "xetex story \\bye" just fine.

Can anyone on Ubuntu 16.04 compile without the workaround I mentioned?
