I get this error when installing the package from yaourt, and from instructions on the git page i get this while running make

You need base-devel installed to compile AUR packages.

boxxxie commented 5 years ago

i'm not compiling form AUR (i tried though). i do have base-devel programs installed. i actually am compiling a fork of dwm, and running it as my wm.

this is why i'm not sure why adwm doesn't compile for me.

VanLaser commented 5 years ago

I have this same exact error (also on Arch Linux), happens also without building from AUR, but by direct cloning and following instructions on the main project page.

EDIT: very strange, it works with make -j8 clean all for example, but not with make clean all ... ???

tibequadorian commented 5 years ago

any updates how to fix this?

bbidulock commented 5 years ago

No, I have no problems building this in any of these ways.

bbidulock commented 5 years ago

If you are building under Arch Linux I suggest that you build in a clean chroot.

mxmilkiib commented 4 years ago

Confirmed fix with make -j8 clean all. That's.. strange. @bbidulock Could you edit the PKGBUILDs to use that method?

bbidulock commented 4 years ago

I finally found this. Needed to force dependency between adwm and adwm-adwm.la even though adwm-adwm.la is included in adwm's LDFLAGS. Someone must have changed automake in this regard. So added it manually.

bbidulock commented 4 years ago

I think this is done, then.
