Helo experts,
Today I downloaded the svn-version of LyX-devel and tried to
compile it as
described on
http://www.lyx.org/WebDe.HowToUseSVN
Already running the ./autogen.sh command from the lyx-devel directory
failed with the following messages:
$ ./autogen.sh
Using automake (GNU automake) 1.11.1
Using autoconf (GNU Autoconf) 2.65
This autoconf version is not supported by LyX.
LyX only supports autoconf 2.59c-2.64.
It seems that the GNU Autoconf version 2.65 I have (I don't know
why) is
newer than those (2.59c-2.64) LyX supports.
Is this the case?
Would there be a _simple_ way (compiling matters are not just the
things I
know) to overcome this problem?
I saw this yesterday. Open the file autogen.sh and find this
section, about
a screen or so down:
case $autoversion in
*' '2.59[cd]|*' '2.60[ab]|*' '2.6[0-4])
;;
*)
Change that second line to:
*' '2.59[cd]|*' '2.60[ab]|*' '2.6[0-5])
Then you will be OK.
That said, after I did this, I was still unable to compile, because
I kept
getting "Qt libraries not found" errors. I got these errors both after
installing qt4-mac-devel from macports and installing the Qt SDK
from Nokia.
If you, or someone, knows how to deal with this, I'd be pleased to
hear it.
I've only succeeded by compiling Qt4 from source and installing it
(for me, in ~/lyx/qt4...). Notice that you need to remove *.la from
[QT4DIR]/lib/.
Then with pkg-config installed via macports, and qt4-dir specified in
configure, everything works.
OK, well, I'll try the first and get back to you.
Why don't you try Nokia's Qt with CMake first? This will save you the Qt
compile and I believe this is the best long term solution, both for the
users and the developpers.
Abdel.
