Hello,
I am a bit confused.
I found libtool installed on yarrow and nightshade which are the linux userland
servers.
I tried to autogen.sh the version of mdbtools from github and it worked until
it tried to generate the man pages but this problem could be solved quite quick
too.
So I have a working copy of mdbtools 0.7 in my home done by autogen.sh.
Our debian stable would install:
mdbtools (0.5.99.0.6pre1.0.20051109-7)
Is this version fine too or do you prefer 0.7?
Kind regards

I admit that compilation was a bit tricky. When it complains that
backend.c:31: error: static declaration of 'mdb_backends' follows
non-static declaration, remove the static keyword from that line.
yacc and flex are not installed in nightshade, I worked around that by
running those of willow.
The flex rule expected an output file of .c, so I ran ln -s lex.yy.c .c
(otherwise you get an empty lexer.c)
However, the generated binaries didn't output any table for your file.
I then realised that my local mdbtools does work with yout file. Seems
that mdbtools-0.7 is in GitHub, but not in SourceForge:
https://github.com/brianb/mdbtools
However, in order for just running autoconf.sh, it needs libtool, which
is not installed in Linux or Solaris.
Hi Platonides, I indeed have 0.7 as well on my home-server. Will there
be any luck getting libtool? Is there perhaps already a mdbtools 0.7 package
for debian, that can be installed?
Regards,
Andre
