Title: bootstrap not compatible with automake 1.11.1
Post by: SharkCZ on January 10, 2010, 10:13:56 am
The bootstrap script is not compatible with automake 1.11.1, because the regular expression for checking whether automake is 1.7 or above catches the string "1.1" at the end of 1.11.1 and thus thinks 1.11.1 is too old. See attachment for a fix.

It's a known issue, and I already have a(different) patch in my working-copy.
See also this topic: http://forums.codeblocks.org/index.php/topic,11808.msg80123.html#msg80123 (http://forums.codeblocks.org/index.php/topic,11808.msg80123.html#msg80123).
I did not (yet) apply it, because there have not been any responses except from the one posted by KirkD.

Here is the patch as I use it actually on my system:

Code

 	echo "make dist only supported with automake 1.9 or above" >&2;
 fi
 

It would be nice, if you can test it.

No answer in both threads  :( .

I treat this as no objections  :D .

So I applied my patch to trunk (svn r6074).

My searching thru the forums didn't find it, but your patch is definitely better, thanks.

Still broken:

Code
obfuscated@xlad ~/projects/codeblocks/dev/trunk1 $ ./bootstrap 
libtoolize: putting auxiliary files in `.'.
libtoolize: copying file `./ltmain.sh'
libtoolize: Consider adding `AC_CONFIG_MACRO_DIR([m4])' to configure.in and
libtoolize: rerunning libtoolize, to keep the correct libtool macros in-tree.
libtoolize: Consider adding `-I m4' to ACLOCAL_AMFLAGS in Makefile.am.
am-wrapper: /usr/bin/aclocal-1.9 is missing or not executable.
        Please try emerging the correct version of automake.

But I have automake 1.10.3 and 1.11.1

If I install automake 1.9 it works
