Re: [XaraXtreme-dev] Re: configure.in:305: error: possibly undefined macro: AM_GNU_GETTEXT



Alex, Vasil, Luke,

I simply watch these discussions, I don't want to to get involved with this nightmarish system, but:

Is the double ".in" extension on Vasil's error line significant (Makefile.in.in)? Something's appending ".in" to a filename that already ends ".in". Maybe this is what you're all talking about indirectly?

I managed to overcome the errors I mentioned.

What I get now is this:

...
configure: creating ./config.status
config.status: creating Makefile
config.status: creating PreComp/Makefile
config.status: creating Kernel/Makefile
config.status: creating wxOil/Makefile
config.status: creating tools/Makefile
config.status: creating wxXtra/Makefile
config.status: creating po/Makefile.in
config.status: error: cannot find input file: po/Makefile.in.in

because all the links (they come with the archive) in the po/
subdirectory point to files in /usr/share/gettext/ whereas these files
are located in /usr/local/share/gettext/ on FreeBSD. After relinking
these links the configure step succeeds, with these warnings:

Makefile.am:14: AM_GNU_GETTEXT used but `po' not in SUBDIRS
(during autoreconf)

checking for shared library run path origin... ./config.rpath: Can't open ./config.rpath: No such file or directory
(during ./configure)

I am going home now...

Testing can show the presence of bugs, but not their absence.
