Bug#528275: libgivaro-dev: examples won't compile out of tree

[David Bremner]

Package: libgivaro-dev
Version: 3.2.10-1
Severity: minor


It seems the examples included with libgivaro-dev won't compile out of
the box because they try to re-run automake. It doesn't seem to do
that when I build in the givaro source tree.

host:projects/examples/Rational % make iratrecon
cd ../..  make  am--refresh
make[1]: Entering directory `/home/bremner/projects'
make[1]: *** No rule to make target `am--refresh'.  Stop.
make[1]: Leaving directory `/home/bremner/projects'
make: *** [../../configure] Error 2

 It seems the examples included with libgivaro-dev won't compile out of
 the box because they try to re-run automake. It doesn't seem to do
 that when I build in the givaro source tree.
 
 host:projects/examples/Rational % make iratrecon
 cd ../..  make  am--refresh
 make[1]: Entering directory `/home/bremner/projects'
 make[1]: *** No rule to make target `am--refresh'.  Stop.
 make[1]: Leaving directory `/home/bremner/projects'
 make: *** [../../configure] Error 2

It does seem the makefiles included in the givaro library for the examples 
don't like the fact that the rest of the source tree isn't there.  I'm not 
sure what the best solution is here.

As a workaround for now, you can of course compile the examples with e.g. 

g++ -o iratrecon iratrecon.C -lgivaro -lgmp
