Compiling from SVN - Ubuntu 6.06

I made a svn checkout yesterday in hope to get the latest wesnoth. But here I have some problems. When I run sh autogen.sh, this comes out:

Code: Select all

I have autoconf 1.9 and all required development libraries (or atleast I think so). What are these "MACRO"s all about? I guess I miss something. I'm running on Ubuntu 6.06.

Help? ><

Works fine here on both branch and trunk but I've got automake-1.10 and autoconf-2.61 here. Seems like you're using older versions?

I've just checked in synaptic. I'm running the newest libraries in ubuntu repository. Exactly this:

autoconf 2.59
automake 1.9.6

I don't think it is up to it, I mean, those tools don't change so oftenly, do they?

Maybe I should stick around with tarballs

But SVN is better, heeelp!

You have those versions installed but do you also use them? Check with 'update-alternatives'.

I don't know if this applies in this case but the thing with svn (latest, not releases) is that the code is under development, you might have checked out in a bad moment.

/tsr - tossing in a free thought!

Thats it

automake --version showed I use version 1.4 - even I have removed it!

A install -> completely removed fixed the version to 1.9.6. Works like a charm now (lets hope, configure is running now). I will come back if I have more problems.

Soliton, thank you very much

I still remember our first matches (Drakes and Undeads) ...
