Hi, I try to install the lastest master version of pal without starlink but there is no configure file in it I've try

autoreconf -i -f
errors: configure.ac:11: error: require Automake 1.8.2-starlink, but have 1.16.3
AM_INIT_AUTOMAKE(1.8.2-starlink)

I've try comment this line and then

./configure

errors:

./configure: line 11935: syntax error near unexpected token `build,'
./configure: line 11935: `STAR_DECLARE_DEPENDENCIES(build, erfa starutil)'

could anyone help to generate a configure file?

You need to be using the https://github.com/Starlink/starlink autoconf extensions to build the configure script. The expectation is that most people use the official releases at https://github.com/Starlink/pal/releases which do include the configure script.

We never quite managed to integrate the local changes with upstream autoconf because of copyright assignment problems.
