Unable to compile latest vlc 0.9.0b

Postby adanecito » 21 Jul 2007 22:42

Hi All,

I believe someone changed the build library requirements and whoever uses Cygwin (for windows) can probably help me out as far as locating a mirror for download using cygwin.exe for the new required gettext version (0.16.1).

I got the following error while running configure-vlc.sh:

+ autopoint -f
autopoint: *** The AM_GNU_GETTEXT_VERSION declaration in your configure.ac
file requires the infrastructure from gettext-0.16.1 but this version
is older. Please upgrade to gettext-0.16.1 or newer.
autopoint: *** Stop.

Brand new error just happened in the last 24hrs. Does anyone know of a Cygwin mirror I can point the setup.exe to? Either that or reverse the change.

Also, I tried sending this to the dev group but the email system appears broken or perhaps I am filtered because of my provider (yahoo)? I did detect some awful yahoo ads at the bottom of my email that I did not put in. The second email did not appear to have an ad in my sent box.

Regards,
-Tony

I've the same problem as you
you can download gettext-0.16.1.tar.gz souce code,and
./configure
make
make install
can solve this problem.
