When creating the binary rpm for autoconf from a source, the test for "autom4te" gives "FAILED (tools.at:134)", while the rest of the test give "OK". This prevents the binary from being built successfully. How can I build the binary? I am using RHEL 5.

I have script that I wish to distribute to a small group that requires ImageMagick, but many in the group don't have ImageMagick installed. I'm not really in a position where by I can install ImageMagick on all the groups machines, and my knowledge of compiling is pretty restricted to ./configure; make; make install. Is it possible to compile ImageMagick (or indeed any other program) into a single binary without any external dependencies? I believe to accomplish this I provide ./configure with the following arguments:

sbbdep is a program that reads the elf header of dynamic linked files found in the given argument. argument can be
a package file from /var/adm/packages/...
a DESTDIR destination path of make install
a single given binaries/dynamic libraries
as result it prints out, or into a file, the package names the given argument require. sbbdep scans installed packages, extract some information about dynamic linked binaries and libraries and dumps these infos into a sqlite database usually sbbdep works fast. time consuming is only the first where the cache becomes created this takes about ~? (1 - 2) minutes, of cause, duration depends on the number of cpus and speed of disk io on other runs than the first sbbdep syncs the cache, this is usually a fast operation (~1sec), even if some packages where undated/remoed/installed using the cache with a sqlite client some custom queries can be done like what is required by pkg or file, what are the dependencies of file xy,....
current state of sbbdep is 0.0.1, the first public release. of cause I wanted to make some things better, prettier, more documented and o on but before going on holiday, than waiting until Christmas cause work stresses and than an other year comes I place the code now to a public repo. for me it looks stable enough to release it without stress people that will test/use sbbdep to much with problems. but there may be some bugs I did not noticed, or better say there will be some bugs like it is always the case in software. but since sbbdep does not anything critical an can/shall be run as normal user it will not do anything bad.......

My box is centos 5.5 x64, and how to upgrade autoconf 2.59-12 to 2.61? When I install nabi, I got this message.

You have another version of autoconf. It may work, but is not guaranteed to.

When I run the command:
"sudo apt-get install build essential autconf automake libxmu -dev"
I go the following error:
"E: Package autoconf has no installation candidate"
In the cd-rom there is no any autconf package.
Edit: solution is installing older version = "aptitude install autoconf2.13"
sudo aptitude install autoconf

I have a distro-neutral VirtualBox shell install: VirtualBox-xxx.run
you type: sh VirtualBox-xxx.run install
this goes through but the screen says "could not compile the kernel module vboxdrv.ko, see the install log"
the install log in /var/log says this:
test -e include/linux/autoconf.h -a -e include/config/auto.conf
echo " ERROR KErnel configuration is invalid
echo " include/linux/autoconf.h or include/config/auto.conf are missing
echo " run 'make oldconfig && make prepare' on kernel src to fix it"
ok, I've left out a bunch of stuff but, NO these 2 files are NOT missing. I have all the required compile-type packages and the source and headers. Under /usr/src there are :
1: /linux-2.6.31.12-0.2
2: /linux-2.6.31.12-0.2-obj
3: /linux/obj
4: linux
num 4 is a symbolic which points to 1:. num 3 has a sub-dir /i386/default which links to the /default in 2:
the supposed missing files are in sub-dir in 2:
This is what I did. I changed num 4: to point to 2:, deleted all the vbox stuff and re-tried install - still same result.
I reset num 4: to point to 1: and did the "make oldconfig && make prepare". This put new sub-dir entries under 1: with the 2 files in correct sub-dirs. Delete vbox and try re-install - still same result.
Some things I left out of the error log at the start show that the install's use of "make" relates to both dirs 1: and 2: so even with both having the files the install is still barfing.
Perhaps related to this, at the log end there are errors about the /tmp/vbox and some SUPdrv.c files.
I looked in the forums and there are suggestions wrt errors about these missing files that the fault lies with kernels 2.6.33 which puts these missing files in a different named sub-dir - /generated. Well as you see above, kernel is a 2.6.31
There's supposed to be a command line option for the shell install where you add " -- xxxxx " where xxxxx is extra instructions. I tried to put definitive pointers to the sub-dirs involved there but not successful.
After doing make I have the following questions? How can I see that the build is with debug information? What shall I do to build the release version? Can I have the release version in one directory and the debug version in another? I mean, when I change from debug to release, make will not overwrite the debug version.
View 7 Replies View RelatedI'm in love with my Opensuse 11.2. Love my KDE 4.4. The only thing I miss from my Ubuntu installation, is the ability to use Boxee. I would be more than willing to compile Boxee from source. I only have 2 problems with that:
1) I don't know where I can find all the build-deps or what they are for that matter to build Boxee.
2) I'm running on a Netbook. Yes, my measly Intel Atom is no fun for compiling and building.
What are my options/what can I do to get Boxee up and running on 11.2? I've tried searching on build service for an RPM, but I think due to legal restrictions, Boxee can't be on there.

My goal is to install the i386 build on one partition and the 64-bit build on another. I have been away from Linux for a while and am sick to death of Win7, want to come home. :-}
Booted on i386 side of DVD, system freezes after a couple of lines that start with ATA2. Does not respond to 3 finger salute, ctrl-c, nothing. Have to press reset. I have tried both huge.s and hugesmp.s kernels
Booted on 64-bit side, comes up fine. I performed the install, selected for automatic lilo install. Lilo install hung but I was able to reboot. I booted off the 64-bit side again, entered the following: huge.s root=/dev/sde3 rdinit= ro It booted fully to the login prompt but the keyboard does not work, no input.
Ant was installed in yast2 but will not run since build.xml was never created. How can this be fixed? I would like to run AudioTool.

I'm going through a tutorial here to help me know how to wander around my system in the terminal and just understand better on a general level.
I'm trying to simply figure out how to compile and run some software from source. I get to my directory where the then installed binary sits. I understand I'm supposed to enter in the command:

./units
where 'units' is the name of my binary. But I then get the output:
Quote:
units: can't find units file '/usr/local/share/units.dat'
...what? Why does it refer to that directory that's WAY out there? It seems like it's trying to outguess me on something? I don't know. Anyone out there that does? I'd appreciate an explanation, and help to know what to do to run this binary.
Is it possible to convert/recompile an already compiled x86 binary into an ARM binary?I'm using a BeagleBoard with a command-line Ubuntu (Maverick) and want to run a Ventrilo server but the x86 executable they supply cannot be run on the hardware as far as I can tell (most likely due to differing architecture).Unfortunately I don't have access to the source to allow me to recompile it natively.
