Build fails on CentOS due to missing m4 directory and AM_PROG_AR

Added by Hammel over 8 years ago. Updated over 1 year ago.

Status:

Closed

Priority:

Target version:

PiBox - 0.12.0

Start date:

Due date:

% Done:

Estimated time:

Severity:

03 - Medium

Description

The m4 directory just needs to exist. Not sure if git will show it if the directory doesn't contain something, which means I may need to check in the files generated in m4 by autoconf.

The AM_PROG_AR variable is not in the version of automake on CentOS 6.x. The fix may be to use an m4 ifdef

Fixing these gets passed these errors, but then I get this:

It's looking in the wrong location for these libs. I don't know why. I need to verify the cross.sh works for libpibox on Fedora. I'm pretty sure it does. Which makes this error very suspicious.

First, libpibox failed due to problems with a missing m4 directory and the referent to AM_PROG_AR. To test fixes I needed to use cross.sh, but this was broken too. The latter took longer to fix than the former but I finally found a common solution for libpibox that works on both CentOS and Fedora (ubuntu be damned - I didn't test there).

Then the same problem arose for pnc (pibox-network-config). The same fixes for the former were applied and to cross.sh. But in this case the cross doesn't work correctly on Fedora. So I have to test for which platform I'm on and set the LDFLAGS slightly differently on the two platforms. But now that fix is in and the rootfs build re-run. Waiting to see if we get further this time...
