Re: [Banshee-List] Building from CVS problems with .m4 lmacros

["Roger Scow" <rdscow gmail com>]

Well, by golly it worked.  I've never installed anything by CVS before.  Now I have.  

I installed it on my dual boot office laptop.  Now, I'll have to see if I can make it work on my triple boot MacBook at home.

Thanks for the help, all of you.

Whoops!  You were so right.  I screwed up.  should be --prefix=/usr.  My bad.  Things work better when you put them in the right place.

1. Do you really want /src as your destination directory? Does that exist?
2. On Ubuntu make sure you have the packages build-essential, cvs, subversion, automake1.9, libtool, and autoconf at least. There might be a missing debian package as well but see if that helps.
3. Also, under Ubuntu, the following command is always a great starting place: sudo apt-get build-dep banshee (or whatever package you're wanting to build yourself. In this case, Ubuntu has an older version of banshee so it can put all the dependencies in place for you.)

Newb Scow here, sir.

When I attempt to build Banshee, I cvs'd the module, and then CD'd into banshee.  When I ran ./autogen.sh --prefix=/src, the build started, and then I got this error message:

Checking for required M4 macros...
  gnome-compiler-flags.m4 not found
  libtool.m4 not found
  glib-gettext.m4 not found
  intltool.m4 not found
  pkg.m4 not found
Checking for forbidden M4 macros...
***Error***: some autoconf macros required to build banshee
  were not found in your aclocal path, or some forbidden

  ACLOCAL_FLAGS?

Can't find with apt.  Is this a CVS module?  How do I find?
Thanks

Roger
