BB 0.75 fails to build in centos8 #25

Closed rosset closed 4 years ago

gettext-devel-0.19.8.1-17.el8.x86_64

cd blackbox-0.75
autoreconf -fiv autoreconf: Entering directory `.' autoreconf: running: autopoint --force autopoint: The AM_GNU_GETTEXT_VERSION declaration in your configure.ac file requires the infrastructure from gettext-0.20 but this version is older. Please upgrade to gettext-0.20 or newer. autopoint: Stop. autoreconf: autopoint failed with exit status: 1 error: Bad exit status from /var/tmp/rpm-tmp.NTRWh7 (%build)

Your distro's gettext is old. You can get around this by executing ./autogen.sh before anything else. This will edit AM_GNU_GETTEXT_VERSION for you and perform an autoreconf -iv too.
