Build issue on Red Hat Scientific Linux

[GoogleCodeExporter]

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. Check out trunk (r48)
2. ./autogen.sh
3. make

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?

Build fails with:

make[1]: *** No rule to make target `lbfgs.lo', needed by `libmitlm.la'.  Stop.
make[1]: Leaving directory `/home/stephen/mitlm2'
make: *** [all-recursive] Error 1

This can be fixed by editing the Makefile produced by autogen.sh:

but I don't know what the underlying cause is.

What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?

trunk (r48)

Unfortunately I don't have any of those distribution (I'm using Debian wheezy).
I guess the problem is the version of automake/autoconf used. I'm using 
automake 1.11.1 and autoconf 2.68.

Here you can find the generated file (you can try the usual configure, make and 
make install). Anyway keep in mind that issue 14 is not fixed in this package.

Had the same problem with svn mitim-r48 on Debian 5.0.8 running Linux version 
2.6.38-11-generic (buildd@allspice) (gcc version 4.5.2 (Ubuntu/Linaro 
4.5.2-8ubuntu4) ) #48-Ubuntu SMP Fri Jul 29 19:02:55 UTC 2011

I applied this patch file to the make and it worked for me

./autogen.sh
patch Makefile mitim.patch
make
make install

This issue should be fixed by mitlm 0.4.1. If it is not, please re-open this 
bug.
