Yara 1.7 fails to build on Ubuntu 10.04 (automake 1.11 issue?) #70

Open GoogleCodeExporter opened 8 years ago

GoogleCodeExporter commented 8 years ago 
What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. svn checkout http://yara-project.googlecode.com/svn/trunk/ 
yara-project-read-only
2. ./configure --with-re2 ; ./bootstrap.sh
3. make

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?
Expected make to succeed, instead this error:

What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?
Trying to build Yara 1.7 on Ubuntu 10.04 64bit. I can checkout and build 
revision 162 without any problems.

Please provide any additional information below.
Attached file has output from ./configure --with-re2, ./bootstrap.sh, and make

It builds OK on Ubuntu 12.04 64bit, which is odd to me since the automake 
version is still 1.11. See attachment.

I have the same issue. Exactly. Ubuntu 11.04.

Also, Revision 163 builds fine (with bootstrap.sh). But NOT the latest.. (1.7) 
*arrgghh*

Also, trying to do a ./configure, then ./bootstrap.sh with Yara 1.7 produces 
the error "cd: 23 can't cd to libyara" (the folder exists). Weird! (of course 
make and make install fail after that).

Nudge.. anything? anyone?

Same problem on Apple OSX 10.7. with MacPorts, automake 1.13.1.

Running "autoreconf" solved this issue for me.

Will build 1.62 still no joy with 1.7.

Of course, everything works fine with 11.x or higher.

Possibly relevant (since I'm having similar errors on OSX when trying to run 
autoreconfig)

I have managed to get this to compile successfully under ubuntu 12.10.

nathaniel@nxps:~/src/yara-project-read-only$ uname -a
Linux nxps 3.5.0-17-generic #28-Ubuntu SMP Tue Oct 9 19:31:23 UTC 2012 x86_64 
x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux

I installed automake1.9 via apt-get and removed the older version.

Checked out latest SVN:

nathaniel@nxps:~/src$ svn checkout 
http://yara-project.googlecode.com/svn/trunk/ yara-project-read-only 
A    yara-project-read-only/force.cpp

Ran ./configure:
nathaniel@nxps:~/src/yara-project-read-only$ ./configure 
checking build system type... x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu
checking host system type... x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu

Then ran bootstrap.sh - NOTE THIS STILL ERRORS.

nathaniel@nxps:~/src/yara-project-read-only$ ./bootstrap.sh

autoreconf: libtoolize is needed because this package uses Libtool
./bootstrap.sh: 23: cd: can't cd to libyara

However, running aclocal, then autoconf, followed by running make, gives you a 
working build.

Installing libtool then generates the 'no-extra-portability' error - removing 
it removes this (but adds other errors).

To build yara-python, you'll have to repeat the similar steps for libyara, then 
adjust the Makefile for a valid MKDIR_P (mkdir -p), then sudo make install, 
then build yarapython as normal.

After installing automake, autoconf, and libtool under Ubuntu 13.04, I ran 
./bootstrap.sh then ./configure

After the above, I was able to build it with "make" "sudo make install" just 
fine.

Build also fails on CentOS 5.9.

I've fixed this issue, at least it works fine in Ubuntu 11.04 and 12.04. Anyone 
with a different operating system who wants to test it is welcomed.

svn co https://yara-project.googlecode.com/svn/branches/yara-1.x
cd yara-1.x
./bootstrap.sh
./configure
make

Please notice that these changes are in /svn/branches/yara-1.x, not in 
/svn/trunk.

Confirmed the steps in #14 (copied exactly w/ cut & paste) work on Ubuntu 10.04 
(YAY!!!). Result:
$ ./yara -v
yara 1.7 (rev:179)

Unfortunately on CentOS 5.9 the bootstrap.sh script fails to produce a 
configure script:
$ ./bootstrap.sh 
You should add the contents of `/usr/share/aclocal/libtool.m4' to `aclocal.m4'.
configure.ac: installing `./install-sh'
regex/Makefile.am: installing `./depcomp'
aclocal: couldn't open directory `m4': No such file or directory
autoreconf: aclocal failed with exit status: 1
Remember to add `AC_PROG_LIBTOOL' to `configure.ac'.
You should add the contents of `/usr/share/aclocal/libtool.m4' to `aclocal.m4'.
configure.ac: installing `./install-sh'
configure.ac: installing `./missing'
Makefile.am: installing `./INSTALL'
Makefile.am: installing `./depcomp'
aclocal: couldn't open directory `m4': No such file or directory
autoreconf: aclocal failed with exit status: 1

Now it works on CentOS 5.9 as well
