When I try cd languages/perl6; make; the build stops with
bison -v -y -d -o imcparser.c imcc.y
sh: bison: not found
The above-referenced patch includes changes to
config/gen/makefiles/imcc.in to avoid this problem.
That patch has the disadvantage of requiring developers to remember to
make regen_all
whenever the bison or flex input files are changed, but it has the
advantage of not stopping with the "bison: not found" error message.
Alternatively, developers could always try to ensure they checkin patches
in the correct order so that the timestamps stay correct.
(Sorry, I know this re-re-opens the RT ticket :-(. This is the last time
I'll do that for this ticket, but I think it's appropriate here. As part
of general clean-up leading to a 0.0.9 release, it'd be nice if this
worked.)
