Missing config file in 0.6.1 release

[larandvit]

Hello,

I don't see "config" file to install it. I'm aware of issue #4.

The released tarball doesn't have "config" file. Also, when I try to run "./autogen.sh" file, it doesn't find other files.

./autogen.sh: line 3: autopoint: command not found
./autogen.sh: line 4: aclocal: command not found
./autogen.sh: line 5: automake: command not found
./autogen.sh: line 6: autoconf: command not found

Please advice.

Thank you.

Hi, it seems that your system is missing development tools. Which distribution and version are you using?

For Debian/Ubuntu, a quick way to get the required packages is: sudo apt build-dep bless

Thank you for response, @afrantzis.

I use CentOS 7 and bless package is not available when I run

sudo yum install bless

If I want to build it, what C# development tools do you use? Is it enough to install "dotnet-sdk-2.2". This is what I found for CentOS 7.

@afrantzis,
After installing dotnet-sdk-2.2 and prerequisites, I was able to build it for CentOS 7 64 bit with "./autogen.sh" file. It works fine.

"Step 4: Install the program" failed.

I separated a packaged to be deployed. Also, I installed those libraries as per https://www.centos.org/forums/viewtopic.php?t=58443

sudo yum install rarian-compat.x86_64 epel-release -y
sudo yum install mono-devel.x86_64 gtk-sharp2-devel.x86_64 -y

Thanks.

"Step 4: Install the program" failed.

Do you have output that could help figure out what went wrong?

Hi @afrantzis ,

The output of

sudo make install

Making install in po
make[1]: Entering directory `/home/developer/bless-0.6.1/po'
/usr/local/share
make[1]: execvp: /usr/local/share: Permission denied
make[1]: *** [install-data-yes] Error 127
make[1]: Leaving directory `/home/developer/bless-0.6.1/po'

It seems something with permissions and I ran a command

sudo ls -la /usr/local/share

I have pushed a fix for make install to master. To use make check you need to install the nunit-console command (if it is available on your distro).

Also note that you can run bless from within the source directory after make, system installation is not required.
