Dear Shravan,
The [autotools] world is a mess.
Ubuntu 16.04 ships with this triple:
host-triplet: x86_64-pc-linux-gnu
shell: /bin/bash
compiler: gcc
compiler flags: -g -O2 -fstack-protector-strong -Wformat
-Werror=format-security
linker: /usr/bin/ld -m elf_x86_64 (gnu? yes)
version: libtool (GNU libtool) 2.4.6
automake: automake (GNU automake) 1.15
autoconf: autoconf (GNU Autoconf) 2.69
... and vpp builds like a champ.
If the problem were as simple as "vpp doesn't build with automake 1.15," we'd
fix it... The problem you reported doesn't really look like a vpp issue, as far
as I can tell.
Your balky vm's host triple was just slightly different than stock Ubuntu
14.04, when it was giving you negative energy. Now that it's identical to stock
Ubuntu 14.04, things work as expected.
Probably best to grumble a bit and move on. This wouldn't be the first time for
this sort of problem...
Sorry... Dave

Hi Dave,
That didn't work either.
I manually set automake to 1.14 and tried to build again.
This time it worked. So looks like vpp does not work with automake version
1.15.
However for our build environment we use automake 1.15 and as such vpp build
may not work.
I am checking with some of my colleagues here as to how to get 1.14.
Thanks
Shravan

Looks like automake is a slightly different version.
Anyhow, try:
$ cd vppinfra
$ autoreconf -i -f
And see if the tree builds...
Thanks... Dave

Hi Dave,
Thanks for the response!
I tried all these, none of it seem to work.
I cloned a fresh stable/1606 repo and I get the same error on my dev VM.
I noticed on the fresh Ubuntu VM where it worked - Libtool --help
host-triplet: x86_64-pc-linux-gnu
shell: /bin/bash
compiler: gcc
compiler flags: -Wall -g -O2
linker: /usr/bin/ld -m elf_x86_64 (gnu? yes)
libtool: (GNU libtool) 2.4.2 Debian-2.4.2-1.7ubuntu1
automake: automake (GNU automake) 1.14.1
autoconf: autoconf (GNU Autoconf) 2.69
On the Ubuntu VM where it does not work -
host-triplet: x86_64-pc-linux-gnu
shell: /bin/bash
compiler: gcc
compiler flags: -Wall -g -O2
linker: /usr/bin/ld -m elf_x86_64 (gnu? yes)
libtool: (GNU libtool) 2.4.2 Debian-2.4.2-1.7ubuntu1
automake: automake (GNU automake) 1.15
autoconf: autoconf (GNU Autoconf) 2.69
The only difference seems to be with automake version.
Do you think this makes a difference?
Thanks
Shravan

Try "make install-dep". Depending on the age of the tree / recent update
status, you may need to do some or all of the following. Make sure to save your
work.
$ make distclean # in build-root
$ git clean -fx # from the root of your workspace
And try rebuilding.
Thanks... Dave

Hi
Vpp (stable/1606) builds fine on a fresh Ubuntu 14.04 VM running on oracle
virtualbox.
But on my existing Ubuntu 14.04 VM I see errors when I run bootstrap.sh in the
build-root dir.
config.status: executing libtool commands
rm: invalid option -- 'l'
Try 'rm --help' for more information.
mv: invalid option -- 'l'
Try 'mv --help' for more information.
rm: invalid option -- 'l'
Try 'rm --help' for more information.
chmod: invalid option -- 'l'
Try 'chmod --help' for more information.

I am not sure what is causing this error on the existing ubuntu VM. May be some
software dependency is not right?
Any ideas/suugestions would be helpful.
Thanks
