Bug 248598 – media-libs/ftgl-2.1.3_rc5 compiles but fails to merge

• Status: RESOLVED DUPLICATE of bug 248589
• Product: Gentoo Linux

[Description Oliver Maurhart 2008-11-24 10:47:52 UTC]

media-libs/ftgl-2.1.3_rc5 compiles fine, but when going for installation it fails.

Reason: in the Makefile.am a line

all-local:
	$(ECHO) "Done."

is issued but since ECHO is not set this command results to simply "Done." which certainly confuses make:

Making all in docs
make[2]: Entering directory `/var/tmp/portage/media-libs/ftgl-2.1.3_rc5/work/ftgl-2.1.3~rc5/docs'
make[2]: Nothing to be done for `all'.
make[2]: Leaving directory `/var/tmp/portage/media-libs/ftgl-2.1.3_rc5/work/ftgl-2.1.3~rc5/docs'
make[2]: Entering directory `/var/tmp/portage/media-libs/ftgl-2.1.3_rc5/work/ftgl-2.1.3~rc5'

make[1]: Leaving directory `/var/tmp/portage/media-libs/ftgl-2.1.3_rc5/work/ftgl-2.1.3~rc5'
make: *** [all] Error 2

Created a patch, since I think the ECHO should be replaced with lt_ECHO, shouldn't it?


Reproducible: Always

This bug is a duplicate. Oliver could you please attach your patch to the other bug as well?

OK. Done.

[Comment 4 Christopher Sean Morrison 2008-11-26 19:39:16 UTC]

the other issue is that ECHO wasn't being AC_SUBST'd in the configure.ac file (along with ECHO_N).  That's the trick that should work for all versions of automake at least through 1.6+.  Fixed in r1203.
