Public bug reported: I was trying to rebuild evolution-data-server without optimisation, to help track down a bug triggered by a gnome-pilot synchronisation with the calendar conduit.
I am having trouble with the libical part of e-d-s. It appears that the calendar/libical/configure script is not getting run. The build stops when it goes into calendar/libical and attempts to 'make all', because there isn't a Makefile there. I'm not sure where to look for problems. I seem to have a reasonable development environment (I'd no problem rebuilding the gnome-pilot .deb packages, for example). I tried installing automake1.8 and automake1.9, which I hadn't got installed, but had the same error. Any ideas? For the record, the build steps I've been using are pretty much: 1. get the .dsc, .diff.gz and tarball. 2. run dpkg-src to untar and apply the diff. 3. go into the e-d-s directory, and run 'dpkg-buildpackage -rfakeroot' I'm using the current Edgy package, AFAIK, e-d-s-0ubuntu3. ** Affects: evolution-data-server (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: Unconfirmed -- build error trying to build evolution-data-server from .dsc, .diff.gz, and tarball https://launchpad.net/bugs/73891 -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
