<div class="gmail_quote">Florian,<br><br>Yes, that was helpful; I was able to use mercurial to clone the repository. However, as a LInux noob, I'm still having problems. ;)<br><br>So I have the files in $home/etherlab-default, and I notice there is no:<br>
configure.sh<br><a href="http://config.h.in" target="_blank">config.h.in</a><br>config.h<br>aclocal.m4<br>stamp-h<br>when comparing the tree to the one from, say -r1824. Clearly the GNU autotools are needed to make configure.sh from <a href="http://configure.ac" target="_blank">configure.ac</a>, so we invoke:<br>
autoheader<br>touch NEWS README AUTHORS ChangeLog<br>touch stamp-h<br>aclocal<br>autoconf<br>(based in instructions I found here: <a href="http://www.openismus.com/documents/linux/automake/automake.shtml" target="_blank">http://www.openismus.com/documents/linux/automake/automake.shtml</a>)<br>
<br>Take a look at config.log, and we have a problem:<br><span style="color: rgb(255, 0, 0);">configure:1896: error: cannot find install-sh or install.sh in autoconf "."/autoconf</span><br style="color: rgb(255, 0, 0);">
<br><a href="http://configure.am" target="_blank">configure.am</a> has <span style="color: rgb(51, 204, 0);">AC_CONFIG_AUX_DIR([autoconf])</span>, and from the GNU autoconf documentation this means it requires this directory (and its contents) to generate AC_OUT. There is an /autoconf in the -r1824 tree, but not in the hg cloned /etherlab-default.<br>
<br>As we see in the transaction:<br><br>[root@schwarzwald ethercat-default]# ./configure --enable-generic=yes --enable-8139too=no --with-linux-dir=/usr/src/linux<br>configure: error: cannot find install-sh or install.sh in autoconf "."/autoconf<br>
<br>Obviously I'm doing something wrong, or am completely missing an important step in using the autotools to get the files all set up. Please advise...<br><br>Regards,<br><font color="#888888"><br>Dusty Clark<br>MMT Observatory<br>
