compiling problem

[pardus]

L.S.

Using the current CVS tree for wesnoth I can't compile the game


pardus@Captain 12:07 wesnoth$ ./configure
checking for a BSD-compatible install... /bin/install -c
<SNIP configure output>
config.status: creating po/Makefile
config.status: executing depfiles commands
pardus@Captain 12:10 wesnoth$ make
make all-recursive
make[1]: Entering directory `/mnt/data_1/upload/download/wesnoth'
Making all in intl
/bin/sh: line 1: cd: intl: No such file or directory
make[1]: *** [all-recursive] Error 1
make[1]: Leaving directory `/mnt/data_1/upload/download/wesnoth'
make: *** [all] Error 2


But the "intl" directory _does_ exist, I also checked permissions etc.. I remember having the same problem with an earlier release (0.8.3 I think). Any suggestions on how to fix this ?

For your information I use a (reasonable up-to-date) gentoo box.

PS. I also had a problem downloading the 0.8.4 release - probably you should wait with announcing on freshmeat till all SF mirrors actually have the tarball; I noticed the same problem with earlier wesnoth releases and it is quite annoying. This is why I was trying the CVS version.

Did you use the -d option ?

ack - just doesn't work

Could it have anything to do with the versions of make/automake tools ?

No idea. It works fine here.

You might try blowing away the various Makefile,config, and automake generated files and then doing another 'cvs update -APd'.

Try to use 'gmake' instead 'make'. In future, you should tell us what OS you are having.

Using 'gmake' gives the exact same output as using 'make', probably because they are both GNU Make 3.80.

I mentioned "gentoo box" in my first post, by this I mean a i686 with gnu/linux as supplied by the gentoo distribution. Also the download dir is on a local ext3 filesystem so I very much doubt that filesystem weirdness is causing the problem.

Tried running make with debug options but no hints there either.

Darth Fool: didn't work either [/b]

Oh right, I see that now. I was looking for 'Linux', 'MacOS X' or whatever. Since, it's Linux then I have no idea.
