No

I'm getting a build error from the user tree of the SVN pull.

    ibConfLex.c is a generated file. Make sure you have the "flex"
    program installed and it is found by the configure script. You will
    also need "bison" installed for similar reasons.

    Yes, I installed bison/byacc/flex after previous build errors. It still wouldn't compile (even after make clean). I wiped the tree and pulled it from the repo again. This time it compiled.
    Shouldn't "configure" complain if the required tools are not present?

      If I remove flex, ibConfLex.c and ibConfLex.h then do configure and make I get:

      $ make
      /bin/bash /home/fluke/svn/linux-gpib/linux-gpib-user/missing flex ibConfLex.l
      /home/fluke/svn/linux-gpib/linux-gpib-user/missing: line 81: flex:
      command not found
      WARNING: 'flex' is missing on your system.
      You should only need it if you modified a '.l' file.
      You may want to install the Fast Lexical Analyzer package:
      https://github.com/westes/flex
      make: *** [Makefile:1344: ibConfLex.c] Error 127

      configure doesn't complain, it just sets the "missing" script for use
      if flex is actually attempted to be used during make. If you were
      using a release,
      ibConfLex.c would be in the tarball and you would never need flex.
