Bug 23365 – gnome-base/nautilus-2.2.4-r5 issues with automake

• Status: RESOLVED FIXED
• Product: Gentoo Linux

[Description TGL 2003-06-24 03:55:15 UTC]

Here is what it gives me:

>>> Unpacking source...
>>> Unpacking nautilus-2.2.4.tar.bz2 to /var/tmp/portage/nautilus-2.2.4-r5/work
 * Applying nautilus-2-snap_to_grid-r1.patch...                        [ ok ] 
 * Applying nautilus-2-x-printers.patch...                             [ ok ]

aclocal.m4:74: aclocal.m4 with aclocal and run automake again.

/usr/share/automake-1.6/am/depend2.am: AMDEP does not appear in AM_CONDITIONAL
/usr/share/automake-1.6/am/lang-compile.am: AMDEP does not appear in AM_CONDITIONAL

(and the four "/usr/share..." lines are then repeted many times, until it die) 

I use the following versions of autotools:
  sys-devel/autoconf-2.57-r1
  sys-devel/automake-1.7.2

and if you add 'WANT_AUTOMAKE=1.4' to the line before 'automake' in the ebuild (similar to the autoconf line) ?

[Comment 2 TGL 2003-06-24 04:08:41 UTC]

Tried again after adding an "aclocal" call to the ebuild, and it still fails, with this error:

 * Applying nautilus-2-x-printers.patch...                              [ ok ]

Oops, sorry Foser for my previous message, I was trying stuffs and have not seen yours.

So, yes, it does work your WANT_AUTOMAKE=1.4 patch.

Thanks.

ok fixed in the ebuild. I really wonder why auto<conf,make> is so unpredictable, it shouldn't be.

thnx for your report.

Have you read that?: http://freshmeat.net/articles/view/889/  ;)

Oh, and while I'm commenting, let's do my "success report": so far the cups plugin works fine, I was able, as a simple user, to add a new printer, use it, display its status... That's really a nice new feature.

Thanks for your work.
