Tried building with this, and had a couple issues. The clean target assumes a git checkout: clean: git clean -dfx But Debian builds against tarballs of the source, and running 'git clean -dfx' from a directory with the source unpackaged but no .git directory fails. The configure target doesn't take some common options, and fails when unknown options are passed, such as --includedir. The default build passed these: ./configure --build=x86_64-linux-gnu --prefix=/usr --includedir=\${prefix}/include --mandir=\${prefix}/share/man --infodir=\${prefix}/share/info --sysconfdir=/etc --localstatedir=/var --disable-silent-rules --libdir=\${prefix}/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu --libexecdir=\${prefix}/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu --runstatedir=/run --disable-maintainer-mode --disable-dependency-tracking From the ./configure help output, it suggests that only --prefix and --sysconfdir are supported, but maybe not all the supported options are documented. Working around that by only passing: ./configure --prefix=/usr --sysconfdir=/etc And a no-op clean target... Still fails to build: build-aux/build-cc.sh ... ;;; WARNING: compilation of /<<BUILDDIR>>/mes-0.16+0.3da4d01/build-aux/mes-snarf.scm failed: ;;; ERROR: failed to create path for auto-compiled file "/<<BUILDDIR>>/mes-0.16+0.3da4d01/build-aux/mes-snarf.scm" mes-snarf[guile]... lib/libmes.c:21:10: fatal error: libmes.h: No such file or directory #include <libmes.h> ^~~~~~~~~~ compilation terminated. make[2]: *** [GNUmakefile:39: cc] Error 1 make[2]: Leaving directory '/<<BUILDDIR>>/mes-0.16+0.3da4d01' make[1]: *** [GNUmakefile:123: src/mes.gcc-out] Error 2 make[1]: *** Waiting for unfinished jobs.... ;;; note: auto-compilation is enabled, set GUILE_AUTO_COMPILE=0 ;;; or pass the --no-auto-compile argument to disable. ;;; compiling /<<BUILDDIR>>/mes-0.16+0.3da4d01/build-aux/mes-snarf.scm ;;; WARNING: compilation of /<<BUILDDIR>>/mes-0.16+0.3da4d01/build-aux/mes-snarf.scm failed: ;;; ERROR: failed to create path for auto-compiled file "/<<BUILDDIR>>/mes-0.16+0.3da4d01/build-aux/mes-snarf.scm" mes-snarf[guile]... lib/libmes.c:21:10: fatal error: libmes.h: No such file or directory #include <libmes.h> ^~~~~~~~~~ compilation terminated. make[1]: *** [GNUmakefile:36: build] Error 1 make[1]: Leaving directory '/<<BUILDDIR>>/mes-0.16+0.3da4d01' dh_auto_build: make -j4 returned exit code 2 So, some progress, but still some work left to do! :) live well, vagrant
