[Synfig-user] Re: Can't get ETL to compile in Ubuntu 5.10 Breezy

[Daniel F. <Da...@di...>]

I've been getting that same bootstrap error:

 > test/Makefile.am:23: invalid unused variable name: `value_SOURCES'
 > test/Makefile.am:21: invalid unused variable name: `spline_SOURCES'

Just filed a bug report on that so hopefully someone will fix it. I'm no 
programmer so don't take this as good advice but---

If you edit test/Makefile.am and comment out these two lines like so:

[...]
hermite_SOURCES=hermite.cpp
#spline_SOURCES=spline.cpp
stringf_SOURCES=stringf.cpp
#value_SOURCES=value.cpp

bootstrap will run without errors and will create the configure script. 
Note that this problem is also in ETL-0.04.08. The configure script is 
already included with the tarball but if you run bootstrap the same 
error shows up.
