[Doxygen-users] Problem running configure on Ubuntu 13.10 (saucy) 64-bit

[Peter R. <p.r...@sh...>]

Hi

I am trying to build doxygen on Ubuntu 13.10 (saucy) 64-bit but I seem 
to be having problems even getting past the configure step.

First, running ./configure --help gives:

Usage: ./configure [--help] [--prefix dir] [--install name]

Options:

   --help                Print this help

   --prefix dir          Installation prefix directory
                         [default: /usr/local]

   --install name        Use `name' as the name of the GNU install tool
                         [default: install]

... and that is it!

When I try running ./configure I get:

   Checking for GNU install tool... using /usr/bin/install
   Created Makefile from Makefile.in...

...and again, that's it! The makefile is suspiciously short, only 19 
lines with an install target.

I think I have all the prerequisites installed.

I have also run the same on 32-bit Ubuntu 12.04 and it all works fine. 
In particular, ./configure --help gives the full set of options, and the 
makefile is good - it subsequently builds OK.

Any help much appreciated.

Peter

Peter,

This is indeed very short, also the output of the ./configure --help is a
bit strange and short.
Which version are you trying (versions numbers should be in the beginning
of the configure file)?

Hi Peter,

Seems like you have the minimal configure script that is bundled with the binary version
of doxygen for Linux. For compilation you need the one that comes with the source package.

Regards,

Hi Dimitri

Thanks for the prompt reply.

You are right, of course. I have obviously downloaded the pre-built 
linux binary by mistake on my saucy box but managed to click on the 
right link from precise. Really dumb mistake - sorry!

(All this explains why there was only an install target in the makefile!)

Best wishes,

Peter
