Compile VLC 0.86d source and use Cygwin tool issue

Postby Homda » 03 Jan 2008 16:22

Hello,
I follow win32CompileCygwin and create configure-vlc.sh file.
Every thing is fine but When i execute ../configure-vlc.sh(page 22) will generate some issues.
I try to find solution to resolve this but fail.

issue 1:

Code: Select all

You should add the contents of `/usr/share/aclocal/libtool.m4' to `aclocal.m4'. Putting files in AC_CONFIG_AUX_DIR, `autotools'.
issue 2:

Code: Select all

+ rm -f po/Makevars.template + aclocal-1.10 -I m4 + autoconf configure.ac:357: error: m4_undefine: undefined macro: AC_DEPLIBS_CHECK_METHOD configure.ac:357: the top level autom4te-2.61: /usr/bin/m4 failed with exit status: 1
And will pop up a exception window,"Application occur exception, unknown software error(0xc0000409) in address(0x18cb1852)".
Title is "sh.exe - Application error"

Please help me!!
Your suggestions is very applicate!!
Thanks

Homda

to update the packages we have to do: "aptitude update". I had already done this... But I find the error, I was searching "libtools", instead of "libtool"... hehe... I took away the "s" and I could find the package and install it. I have already being able to bootstrap correctly, I hope I will be able to configure the code and build it without problems!

(sometimes the errors are so stupid that you dont even think to check those things... hehe...)

Thank you anyways!!
