error when compiling from svn sources (25-10/2006)

[afb]

Will do up a proper patch for the other change, to the autoconf.

yup, my local is italian and my svn client is translated in italian as well.

i updated to revision 3163 (should contain the fixes) today (1/11/06)

i tried to run the following commands:
./bootstrap
./configure --enable-contrib
until now all fine
then i tried to run make
i keep getting the error started in the first post in this thread
then i tried anoter way:
make dist
it created correctly the tar package
i tried to copy to my rpm source folder & create the rpm:

sudo mv codeblocks-trunk-r$REVISION.tar.gz $RPM_TOPDIR/SOURCES
rpmbuild -bs codeblocks.spec

but i did get the following error:

error: Package already exists: %package debug (but no package is present, the folder is empty)

(this probably since i tried before to force to install a rpm nighty build)

trying to not loose hopes i extractied the tar package in a folder and i did run:

./configure --enable-contrib
make (this time it compiled correctly)
# make install
the installation runs fine but when i do try to run it, it reports that it misses a file (can't find wich file)

if the make directly from the svn sources would be fixed (no more mismatching language), would i still get the same error (missing file) after compling?

This sounds like an RPM error, with the specfile on your platform.
AFAIK that debug package is a thing that SUSE/Mandriva does... ?

Code

%{?debugrpm:%debug_package}

If you list your RPM settings, it should give you some clues to how it
is trying to define the debug package in the spec ? (rpmbuild --showrc)

i do use mandriva linux 2007 with kernel 2.6.17-5; the rpmbuild version is 4.4.6.

sorry for not being much "skilled" but i switched to linux very recently & i am not a good programmer since i only write small programs for myself when i do need (in my free time), thanks anyway for the help.

i check out the output of the rpmbuild configuration; those are the lines of codes that i belive that they define the debug package, they don't tell me much so i hope that someone may be able to understand them and tell me what's wrong (if needed, the output.txt attached file is the complete settings dump):

Code

%{nil}

Hi!

i have a plea:
please use LANG=C on Linux.

On Gentoo Linux, the en_US profile may not be installed. Gentoo users have the choice, which locales they install, and which they don't.

I have read, that LANG=C doesn't work on Windows. Well, i have no suggestion :-(
Isn't it possible to detect Windows via configure and then use LANG=C if we have Linux, OSX, BSD, ... (and not Windows).

Well, i hope that LANG=C works on more platforms than Linux.
