[Freetalk-dev] Compile problems under fc5

[Len Trigg]

Hi all,

I am trying to compile 0.69 under fc5 and am having problems.  First
problem was bad symlinks in the po directory.  Following earlier
emails to the list, I checked out current CVS and ran autogen.sh,
which fails like this:

address@hidden freetalk-cvs]$ ./autogen.sh
./autogen.sh: line 3: gettextize: command not found
./autogen.sh: line 5: test: -lt: unary operator expected
which: no gettextize in 
(/home2/len/bin:/usr/local/java/jdk/bin:/usr/kerberos/bin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/bin:/bin:/usr/X11R6/bin:/home2/len/bin:/home2/len/bin)

My system has glib-gettextize installed rather than gettextize (I
don't know where the non-glib one comes from).  So I manually ran the
following steps from the autogen.sh:

$ glib-gettextize; aclocal; autoconf; automake --add-missing
aclocal:configure.ac:32: warning: macro `AM_GNU_GETTEXT' not found in library
aclocal:configure.ac:34: warning: macro `AM_PO_SUBDIRS' not found in library
aclocal:configure.ac:35: warning: macro `AM_ICONV' not found in library

Now when I do configure (setting appropriate flags for where
libloudmouth is and where I want it installed):

address@hidden freetalk-cvs]$ PKG_CONFIG_PATH=/home2/len/.local/lib/pkgconfig 
LDFLAGS=-L/home2/len/.local/lib CPPFLAGS=-I/home2/len/.local/include 
./configure --prefix=/home2/len/.local
....
checking for scm_boot_guile in -lguile... yes
checking for g_slist_free in -lglib-2.0... yes
checking for lm_connection_new in -lloudmouth-1... yes
checking for pkg-config... yes
./configure: line 3808: syntax error near unexpected token `external'
./configure: line 3808: `AM_GNU_GETTEXT(external)'

Is this still due to the lack of regular gettextise?

Cheers,
Len.
