I am (still) trying to build a .deb package of AbiWord 1.0.4 on Debian Woody (3.0r0). I encountered a problem when running 'make distribution'.
The instructions in 'abi/BUILD.TXT' read like this:
"...
[2] End-User Style: just cd into the abi directory and type
'make distribution ABI_BUILD_VERSION=x.y.z ABI_DIST_TARGET=<fmt>'
where <fmt> is one or more of 'tgz', 'rpm', 'deb', 'slp', 'pkg',
'depot'.
This will create one or more archive files in abi/dist. These
may then be installed in the normal manner.
..."However, when I try it, I get a 'no target' error:
$ make distribution ABI_BUILD_VERSION=1.0.4 ABI_DIST_TARGET=deb make: *** No rule to make target `distribution'. Stop.
But there is a target 'distribution:' near the end of abi/Makefile. Or is abi/GNUmakefile relevant on Linux?
Is 'make distribution" still functional with 1.0.4 on Linux?
Any help is welcome.
Martin
PS: Could it be, my version of make is out of date?: $ make --version GNU Make version 3.79.1, by Richard Stallman and Roland McGrath. Built for i386-pc-linux-gnu
