Hi,
I want to install VLC source on ubuntu. Later I want to change source code and then compile it again. I haven't yet installed vlc. when I go for make, it finishes unsuccessfullyL:

Code: Select all

svg.c:501:1: warning: control reaches end of non-void function [-Wreturn-type]
make[4]: *** [libsvg_plugin_la-svg.lo] Error 1
make[3]: *** [all] Error 2
make[2]: *** [all-recursive] Error 1
make[1]: *** [all-recursive] Error 1
make: *** [all] Error 2

I tried to redirect the make output to a file, but unfortunately, it does not redirect all contents to the file. SO, the error messages are not printed there.

any ideas how to fix my problem?

You left out the interesting part.

To redirect all the output to a file and display it simultaneously on a terminal, use the following command syntax:

Code: Select all

./command.sh 2>&1 | tee file.txt

Replace the relevant parts by your command and filename.
