Compile file on ubuntu using tarball moinakg-pcompress-ba1de93.tar.gz #14

Closed liquiz closed 10 years ago

Initial ./config returned a request to install libarchive-dev which was done.

At this point when you do a build everything goes fine until you get to archive/pc_archive.c which starts a string of failures.

I did a ./config make clean make

You are having an old version of libarchive. The config script is missing a check for the correct version.

Quick turnaround :)

I can verify that after "removing" the version that ubuntu provided(which is probably a 2.8 version) and going to libarchive-3.1.2 (untar, configure, make install) that the compile works.

So Im guessing to close the loop on this the problem really ends up an update to the config script to check for version and or a readme.

Either way problem is fixed per suggestion of upgrading to a current version of libarchive.

Thanks
