Re: Can't configure current APL

[Peter Teeson]

Interesting. both of you have same error but different OS' although both Linux’s.

I just downloaded latest, i.e. svn 1445, using git and ./configure gives me the same error.

(my earlier experiments were with svn 1440 and all was OK.)

What did you use to download - svn? or tarball? or git?

config.status: executing libtool commands

configure: creating buildtag.hh...

*** current directory is not an SVN checkout: keeping old buildtag

readlink: illegal option -- f

usage: readlink [-n] [file ...]

configure: top-level apl directory is: 

configure: creating /makefile.h ...

cp: ../../../../makefile.h: Permission denied

./configure: line 22972: ../../../../configure_args.cc: Permission denied

 

configure: saving configure options in ../../../../configure_options

./configure: line 22991: ../../../../configure_options: Permission denied
