5 cygwin: CVS compile fails unless depcomp in path - ID: 531001

Last Update: Comment added ( fgiff )

Details:

Checked out CVS source 3/17 11:30 EST.

I run configure, which exits OK. I run make, and the
build fails because it cannot find depcomp.

I can workaround this by copying depcomp into my path,
and the compile completes without error, and I get a
binary (there IS a problem with the binary running..
I'll log another defect because I assume my other
problem is not a build problem).

Cygwin works with automake pretty well, and doesn't
usually require anything special. Is there a defect in
the makefile, or am I doing something wrong?

make error:
$ make
cd . \
&& CONFIG_FILES= CONFIG_HEADERS=config.h \
/bin/sh ./config.status
config.status: creating config.h
config.status: config.h is unchanged

Date: 2004-02-08 00:13 Sender: fgiff Logged In: YES user_id=457338 I've checked and this is a versioning problem with automake. Cygwin's automake command is actually a wrapper, and setting $WANT_AUTOMAKE_VER to 1.4 will cause cygwin to use automake 1.4, which works as intended, with all makefile targets properly created.
Date: 2004-01-31 20:28 Sender: fgiff Logged In: YES user_id=457338 The current CVS will compile and run both brewnix and blh. Making blh is slightly complicated at the moment, you need to get the Cygwin distribution of Tix, which places the Tix dll and the Tcl/Tk dlls it was built against in /usr/local/bin. Softlink these to libtcl.dll, libtk.dll and libtix.dll (ln -s tcl83.dll tcl.dll) and put /usr/local/bin at the start of your $LIBRARY_PATH (in bash, export LIBRARY_PATH="/usr/local/bin:$LIBRARY_PATH"). Then configure, make and make install. Making specific targets doesn't seem to work, and autoconf and automake have problems, so the depcomp problem is probably version related.
Date: 2003-10-30 18:36 Sender: fgiff Logged In: YES user_id=457338 The line source='brewnix.c' object='brewnix.o' libtool=no \ depfile='.deps/brewnix.Po' tmpdepfile='.deps/brewnix.TPo' \ depmode=none /bin/sh ../depcomp \ isn't in the makefile I get under linux, so the problem might be something the configure script has done. Can you attach a copy of the config.log to the bug please?
