`make` fails with automake-1.15 #25

Open andreaskern opened 8 years ago

andreaskern commented 8 years ago

following the installation instructions on Ubuntu 15.10 results in an error while running make

/tmp/git-clone/crane_gps_watch$ make
 cd . && /bin/bash /tmp/gpswatch/crane_gps_watch/missing automake-1.14 --gnu
/tmp/gpswatch/crane_gps_watch/missing: line 81: automake-1.14: command not found
WARNING: 'automake-1.14' is missing on your system.
         You should only need it if you modified 'Makefile.am' or
         'configure.ac' or m4 files included by 'configure.ac'.
         The 'automake' program is part of the GNU Automake package:
         <http://www.gnu.org/software/automake>
         It also requires GNU Autoconf, GNU m4 and Perl in order to run:
         <http://www.gnu.org/software/autoconf>
         <http://www.gnu.org/software/m4/>
         <http://www.perl.org/>
Makefile:337: recipe for target 'Makefile.in' failed
make: *** [Makefile.in] Error 1

I have automake-1.15 installed so running 

$ aclocal
$ automake
$ make
...

results in a correct build.

as quick fix I'd add the those commands to the Readme.md instructions

Sorry for the late reply, business was keeping me busy. I very much appreciate your input and merged your PR.  I would like to test if the new files work with an older automake. Could you please add the files on a new branch and push them, so I can test them? Br, rudi

i had the same problem. autoreconf -f -i did the job for me. Then proceed with ./configure. See https://stackoverflow.com/questions/33278928/how-to-overcome-aclocal-1-15-is-missing-on-your-system-warning
