(Help, please) no way to build the source code on Ubuntu 20...

[jordigarcia71]

Good afternoon,

I am pretty lost trying to build the source code on Ubuntu 20... After running 'autoconf' I get many 'undefined macro' messages, as you can see below,

Googling I found that running 'autoreconf -fi' might solve it, there's still a macro error related to AC_MSG_WARN though.

Any help would be much appreciated. Thanks a lot

Hi @jordigarcia71 ,

This is likely because you haven't deployed all required dependencies. AC_MSG_WARN is usually an indication that pkg-config or autoconf-archive is not deployed.

Please check https://github.com/Mastercard/pkcs11-tools/blob/master/docs/INSTALL.md#pre-requisites for deploying all pre-requisites (there is a command to deploy the dependencies on Ubuntu),

$ sudo apt-get install autoconf-archive autoconf automake libtool pkg-config

then follow instructions at https://github.com/Mastercard/pkcs11-tools/blob/master/docs/INSTALL.md#installation .

Let me know if you still encounter issues. If that be the case, please post the whole process in this thread, to help resolution.

Thank you,

[jordigarcia71]

Hi Eric,

Thanks a lot for the very rapid response. You're right that I had not gone through all the pre-requisites. I think I did it well now, however when running 'make install' it responds "**make: * No rule to make target 'install'. Stop."

What may I be missing? Find all my steps on the attachment. Thanks again Error building pkcs11-tools-master.txt

Hi @jordigarcia71,

it seems you are missing a couple of other dependencies, on Ubuntu:

• you need libssl-dev, to have the OpenSSL header files present on your system - this is what is actually blocking you
• it is also recommended (although not mandatory) that you install bison and flex, so the parser for wrapped files is recreated from source.

To install these dependencies, just execute the command:

$ sudo apt-get install libssl-dev bison flex

Try this and let me know of the outcome. If successful, I'll adjust the install page accordingly.

Regards,

Hi @keldonin ,

Unfortunately the same message persists, after running the command to install libssl-dev, bison, and flex (even if trying a 'make install' after restarting the system). Any idea? Thank you!

Hi @jordigarcia71,

now you have deployed all dependencies, proceed as follows:

$ ./bootstrap.sh
$ ./configure
$ make
$ sudo make install

Theinstallrule does not imply to build the package, you have to build separately first.

Let me know if you still encounter problems,

[jordigarcia71]

Hi @keldonin

Just to let you know this time it worked perfectly! Thanks a lot for your very rapid and precise answer :-)

Alright, enjoy the tool!
