The instructions in INSTALL.Linux should describe how to do it. If you grabbed this from git, then you'll need to run "./boot.sh" as a sort of step 0. Please make sure that your Autoconf, Automake, and pkg-config meet the minimum version requirements listed. If you're still having problems, please send information about your Linux distribution and how you installed those programs.

Good luck!

I have downloaded the latest git … but am not familiar with the process to use autoconf, automake, etc. to compile the full git tarball as is done with the full 90.6 release. Seems like there are a set of steps for to get the configure and make files generated correctly and I keep getting this error with autoconf –


configure.ac:22: error: possibly undefined macro: AM_INIT_AUTOMAKE

If this token and others are legitimate, please use m4_pattern_allow.

      See the Autoconf documentation.

configure.ac:25: error: possibly undefined macro: AM_PROG_CC_C_O


And these errors with automake –

Makefile.am:20: NDEBUG does not appear in AM_CONDITIONAL lib/ automake.mk:128: HAVE_NETLINK does not appear in AM_CONDITIONAL

I have installed the required elements – autoconf, automake, pkg- config.

Can you provide or point me to a quick set of instructions on how to get the git tarball to build correctly with autoconf / automake ?

Thanks.

John
