Tryimg to build virt-manager from mercurial: getting error: possibly undefined macro: AM_GNU_GETTEXT - why ?
9:50 a.m.
Hello,
I have Fedora Core 6 on x86_64 machine.
I want to build the virt-manager latest from mercurial repository.
I follwed the instructions on the web:
http://virt-manager.et.redhat.com/scmrepo.html
I had performed
"hg clone http://hg.et.redhat.com/virt/applications/virt-manager--devel"
and them ran:
./autobuild.sh
make: *** No rule to make target `distclean'.
aclocal:configure.ac:6: warning: macro `AM_GNU_GETTEXT_VERSION' not
found in library
aclocal:configure.ac:7: warning: macro `AM_GNU_GETTEXT' not found in library
configure.ac: installing `./install-sh'
configure.ac: installing `./missing'
src/graphWidgets/Makefile.am: installing `./compile'
src/graphWidgets/Makefile.am: installing `./depcomp'
configure.ac:6: error: possibly undefined macro: AM_GNU_GETTEXT_VERSION
If this token and others are legitimate, please use m4_pattern_allow.
See the Autoconf documentation.
configure.ac:7: error: possibly undefined macro: AM_GNU_GETTEXT
I have on this FC6: gettext-0.14.6-3.fc6, (from rpm of
the original installation) , intltool-0.35.5 (build from source).
Why is it so ? what should I do ?
Regards,
Mark

Sounds like you are missing the 'gettext-devel' package
$ grep -l AM_GNU_GETTEXT_VERSION /usr/share/aclocal/*.m4
/usr/share/aclocal/gettext.m4
$ rpm -qf /usr/share/aclocal/gettext.m4
gettext-devel-0.14.6-4.fc6

Dan.

Hello,
- Thanks all.
- Ok, I ran: "yum install gettext-devel" and installed
gettext-devel-0.14.6-4.fc6.
Now:
running:
./autobuild.sh
gives:

As I said, I have intltool-0.35.5 on this machine (built and installed
from source tar file).
Any ideas ?

Mark

Couple of questions:
Does your aclocal.m4 file contain a definition of IT_PROG_INTLTOOL? The
definition starts like this:
dnl IT_PROG_INTLTOOL([MINIMUM-VERSION], [no-xml])
# serial 35 IT_PROG_INTLTOOL
AC_DEFUN([IT_PROG_INTLTOOL],
[AC_PREREQ([2.50])dnl
etc.
You mentioned in your first email that you're trying to compile this on
FC6, in which case you should have all these tools available through
yum, ie: yum install intltool
You shouldn't need to rebuild anything (except the latest virt-manager)
from source ...

Hello,
Thanks;
After uninstalling intltool and "yum install intltool" everything went
ok on FC6.
I have a machine with FC7 on which I tried the same and ./autogen.sh fails,
giving the following message (required file `./config.rpath' not found).
(see below full log).
On this machine I have:
gettext-0.16.1-8.fc7
gettext-devel-0.16.1-8.fc7
pygtk2-devel-2.10.4-2.fc7
gtk2-devel-2.10.11-7.fc7
intltool-0.35.5-3.fc7
Does anybody know: what is this "config.rpath" error ? I googled for
it but could not find a satisfiable error. I want to add that
on the FC6 , a config.rpath file is not generated.
Did anybody have success with building on FC7 machines after downloading from
repositories ?
Here is the full output on the FC7 machine:

Not sure about this one. On my machine I have config.rpath in the
libvirt directory (not in the virt-manager directory however), and I
also have:
$ rpm -qf /usr/share/gettext/config.rpath
gettext-devel-0.14.6-4.fc6
If you have it there, try copying it to the build directory? I have no
idea if that will work, but it's worth a try.
BTW, Fedora and Debian (rightly IMO) deprecate use of rpaths, see:
http://people.debian.org/~che/personal/rpath-considered-harmful and
http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Packaging/Guidelines#head-a1dfb5f46bf409884...
On the other hand, the GNU toolchain seems to prefer to add it to libraries.

Its a bug in current virt-manager code. The workaround is to simply run
'touch config.rpath'
We'll figure out a real fix...
