Hi there, I'm trying to get a configure file on the maint branch so I can compile and install bison. The branch doesn't come with a configure file, nor does it contain an INSTALL file from what I could see.
I'm on Mac OS X 10.13.2 and have a few things installed with homebrew so my $PATH looks a little funny: /usr/local/opt/m4/bin:/usr/local/opt/gettext/bin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/bin:/bin:/usr/sbin:/sbin:/opt/X11/bin:/usr/local/git/bin:/Users/dlampa/.rvm/bin `autoconf` fails with this: dlampa@CHI-EN-RGFFT1 bison (maint) $ autoconf sh: build-aux/git-version-gen: No such file or directory configure.ac:47: error: m4_defn: undefined macro: AC_PACKAGE_VERSION configure.ac:47: the top level autom4te: /usr/bin/m4 failed with exit status: 1 which kind of looks like my PATH isn't being honored for some reason. I also have a hunch i might need to `make` something else here. I get a bit farther with `autoreconf` but that fails too dlampa@CHI-EN-RGFFT1 bison (maint) $ autoreconf aclocal: error: aclocal: file 'm4/m4.m4' does not exist autoreconf: aclocal failed with exit status: 1 despite the m4/m4.m4 file existing in the place I think it's looking for it: dlampa@CHI-EN-RGFFT1 bison (maint) $ ls m4/m4.m4 m4/m4.m4 Am I doing something stupid? Any guidance on how to get a configure file? Thanks all _______________________________________________ [email protected] https://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/help-bison
