Trying Compiling

[sapomuyverde]

Hi,
For me does not work…
./autogen.sh output:

Copying file po/Makefile.in.in

Please add the files
codeset.m4 gettext.m4 glibc21.m4 iconv.m4 isc-posix.m4 lcmessage.m4
progtest.m4
from the /usr/share/aclocal directory to your autoconf macro directory
or directly to your aclocal.m4 file.
You will also need config.guess and config.sub, which you can get from
ftp://ftp.gnu.org/pub/gnu/config/.

Unescaped left brace in regex is deprecated, passed through in regex; marked by <– HERE in m/\${ <– HERE ([^ \t=:+{}]+)}/ at /usr/bin/automake line 3930.
src/Makefile.am:33: warning: shell $(GLIB_COMPILE_RESOURCES: non-POSIX variable name
src/Makefile.am:33: (probably a GNU make extension)

./configure –prefix=/usr output:
configure: error: invalid variable name:–prefix'`

Any help is welcome.

Javier

Hi, which linux distribution are you using?

[cboxdoerfer]

Did you write? ./configure --prefix=/usr

Hi,
I'm using solus, this is the output:

@sapomuyverde, try installing a package called gnome-common. not sure how it's called exactly on Solus OS.

Hi Christian,
Finally it worked!!!

I appreciate your help, I have some questions, I realized that to find all files for example .png, should I not use *.png, I have to try with .png, but what about for example search *myfile.* or myfile.* and so.

PS: How to search the entire contents of the hard disk without adding each folder, and then I can exclude folders that I do not want.

Regards,
Javier

I appreciate your help, I have some questions, I realized that to find all files for example .png, should I not use .png, I have to try with .png, but what about for example search *myfile. or myfile.* and so.

That's what the regex mode is for (menu bar: Search -> Enable RegEx). There you can use the usual regular expressions with wildcards and so on. E.g. the regular expression for "myfile.*" is myfile\.+.

But simple wildcard queries like you mentioned will be added to the normal search mode soon.

How to search the entire contents of the hard disk without adding each folder, and then I can exclude folders that I do not want.

Just add the root directory of the filesystem (e.g. by pressing Ctrl+L in the add folder dialog, insert '/' and hit enter, or by manually navigating to the root dir). And then exclude the folders you like in the Exclude tab.

Since you managed to compile it, I'm closing the issue. If you have any additional questions or suggestions, feel free to ask.
