autogen problem on esoteric

[Magnus Norddahl]

I currently get the following error when I try to run autogen.sh on esoteric (revision 2278):


checking for maintainer mode... disabled
configure: error: conditional "LINUX_JOYSTICK" was never defined.
Usually this means the macro was only invoked conditionally.
make: *** [config.status] Error 1


Not sure how to fix that, but hopefully Rombust knows. :)

[rombust]

Yeah, i messed up somewhere ... i'll have a look tomorrow

[rombust]

I can get it to error when clanGL is disabled.

Fixed in SVN

Try it again.

[Magnus Norddahl]

It seems to build now. Thanks a lot Rombust.

Next problem:

System/datetime.cpp:42: error: integer constant is too large for 'long' type
make[2]: *** [System/datetime.lo] Error 1

This one is caused by myself though, so I'll look into that when I get the time. :)

[rombust]

I have applied the following patch, i hope it works :)

It made it compile at least. :)

Seems there's a problem with building clanSound on esoteric.

Unix/soundoutput_alsa.h:53: error: ISO C++ forbids declaration of 'snd_pcm_t' with no type
Unix/soundoutput_alsa.h:53: error: expected ';' before '*' token
Unix/soundoutput_alsa.h:54: error: 'snd_pcm_uframes_t' does not name a type
Unix/soundoutput_alsa.h:55: error: 'snd_pcm_uframes_t' does not name a type
soundoutput.cpp: In constructor 'CL_SoundOutput::CL_SoundOutput(const CL_SoundOutput_Description&)':
soundoutput.cpp:74: error: 'class CL_SoundOutput_alsa' has no member named 'handle'

I am not sure if esoteric even has alsa or not, so the problem could been with configure enabling clanSound.

I am just going to disable clanSound when building so its not really a show stopper for me, but I wanted you to know people can potentionally get this error.

[Magnus Norddahl]

Interestingly enough, when I run configure with ./configure --disable-clanSound I get the following error message:


checking for maintainer mode... disabled
configure: error: conditional "ALSA" was never defined.
Usually this means the macro was only invoked conditionally.

If I just run configure normally I do not get this error. :)

[rombust]

Yeah, it was the same problem in the configure.ac script

+dnl Check for alsa
+have_alsa=no
+AC_CHECK_HEADERS(asoundlib.h alsa/asoundlib.h, have_alsa=yes)
+AM_CONDITIONAL(ALSA, test x$have_alsa = xyes)
+

"--disable-clanSound" should now work.

* The alsa sound error has not been fixed *

Fixed in SVN, try again...

[rombust]

ClanSound compilation without ALSA should now work

(Run ./autogen.sh and ./configure again)
