Title: Building on Debian
Post by: darthdespotism on November 28, 2007, 06:54:46 pm

Hi

I know there is an unoffical Repos for Debian but I prefer building Codeblocks on my own (don't know what this is good for, but ...) and the build is currently failing at ./bootstrap:

You should add the contents of `/usr/share/aclocal/libtool.m4' to `aclocal.m4'.
./bootstrap: line 64: aclocal: command not found

however there is no aclocal.m4 and when I copy the above mentioned file in codeblocksfolder the second error remains.

Any thoughts / packages?

Messages about copying .m4 files happen all the time and i alway ignored them with no problem (on OS X at least but anyway autotools is the same on all platforms). try installing autotools (autoconf, automake, etc.)

OK I really was missing autotools. Trying to build it now :)

Check that the header exists and where it is... if it's actually there, help the program find it by symlinking or passing additional search flags to configure perhaps

You need the gtk-devel package.
(Sigh, one of these days we should add a dependency check for this in configure.in...)

Do you mean libgtk2-dev ? this is already installed

after symlinking /usr/include/gtk-2.0/gtk to /usr/local/include/gtk it finally worked :)

I have a similar problem building on Ubuntu Feisty (VMWare'd)

after running ./configure i get:

Code

checking for GTK2... configure: error: Package requirements (gtk+-2.0 >= 2.0.0) were not met:

No package 'gtk+-2.0' found

is it even possible that gtk 2.0 isn't installed on a vanilla ubuntu? does anyone know what I'm missing?

to pre-empt the next set of problems, to build C::B with the full set of plugins what make incantations do I need to specify?

I'm not sure. But it may come only with the runtime packages. You should install libgtk+-2.0-devel package (the name may be bit different) to compile C::B.

Configure C::B as -

Code

./configure --with-contrib-plugins=all

thanks biplab (for reference the name was libgtk2.0-dev)

I also grabbed automake, autoconf, libtools, and the usual wx libs -- I really have no idea how many of these were essential... The wiki is very out of date on compiling from source on linux
