While building libtool HEAD today, I encountered this problem:
PATH=.:$PATH; export PATH; /bin/bash
/home/bfriesen/src/gnu/libtool-head/libltdl /config/missing --run
help2man --output=/home/bfriesen/src/gnu/libtool-head/doc/ libtool.1
--help-option=--help-all libtool
/home/bfriesen/src/gnu/libtool-head/libltdl/config/missing: line 54:
help2man: c ommand not found
WARNING: `help2man' is missing on your system. You should only need
it if
you modified a dependency of a manual page. You may need the
`Help2man' package in order for those modifications to take
effect. You can get `Help2man' from any GNU archive site.
So then I tried installing help2man 1.36.4 and its configure script
fails with:
checking for pre-loadable libintl... no
configure: error: libpreloadable_libintl.so required (gettext 0.12+)
I have no interest in installing GNU gettext on this system (Solaris)
since I have been down that irrevertable rats-nest before.
Am I now out of luck with building development libtool?
