I don't have access to post in the news section, so I'll just post this here for now.

showeq-5.0.0.18.tar.bz2 (http://prdownloads.sourceforge.net/seq/showeq-5.0.0.18.tar.bz2?download)

To configure, compile, and install ShowEQ itself from the tar file, all you have to do is the following:
Code:

$ tar xjvf showeq-5.0.0.18.tar.bz2
$ cd showeq-5.0.0.18
$ ./configure
$ make
$ make install

Directly building from CVS is still supported, but deprecated for non-developers.

Enjoy!

[I<3EQ]

System:
- Mandrake 10.0
- Autoconf 2.59
- Automake 1.7 and 1.8 (problem occured with both)

Build problems:

- ./configure runs without error
- make errors with:

What I did to fix it:
- In my showeq-5.0.0.18 directory, I ran the following commands:


aclocal
automake -a
make


On a side note, before trying this, I tried to regenerate everything by using make -f Makefile.dist all. It errored out with the same sort of problems cvs had with certain versions of automake (versions 1.6 and 1.9 iirc). I didn't have time to look at it too closely (I'm at work atm) but it looked the same problems with doxygen.

Also, this produces a working build environment. Make runs and produces an executable. I can only assume it works because I won't be able to test it until I get home tonight.

As always, thanks for all your hard work. :)

Hrmm, I'm getting the same build problems from the tarballs that are built from the "make dist-all" process. I'm using Gentoo. So it's not distro specific.

Hopefully I'll catch Zaphod in IRC in the next few days to get this worked out before the next release.

In the mean time I'm sure that most have gotten 5.0.0.18 from CVS and already have it working.

[CeleSEQ]

I'm a bit confused Quackrabbit... just to clarify, has there been any new commits in the past week or so, or were you just doing this to get a tarball out there more officially?

[purple]

cvs hasn't changed since 5.0.0.18. I think Quack was just trying to make it so that there was a released tarball available so all the people who don't know how debug their own automake/autoconf/libtool problems stop complaining.

If he has sf access, that's actually gonna be a big help. Now you just need to teach him how to properly make the tarball, CeleSEQ!

[quackrabbit]

What purple said.

I was just trying to be helpful, but it backfired. I'm hoping to catch Z in IRC, but so far no luck.

[quackrabbit]

Ok, I've talked w/ CeleSEQ in IRC and I've re-created a new showeq-5.0.0.18.tar.bz2 and re-attached it to the files section.

You can download the newest showeq-5.0.0.18.tar.bz2 (http://prdownloads.sourceforge.net/seq/showeq-5.0.0.18.tar.bz2?download) (only if you can't get CVS to work for you) from here (http://prdownloads.sourceforge.net/seq/showeq-5.0.0.18.tar.bz2?download). The new md5sum is: 273e871b5166d73ae0e8ac32e28539db showeq-5.0.0.18.tar.bz2.

[ralkrasta]

I have tried CVS and I have now tried this Tarball I went and updated my automake autoconf etc. files from that other thread. I get errors during make. Is this tarball all I need? Or do I need both CVS and tarball?

[ralkrasta]

Hmmm... I went through the ./configure make and make install process again and somehow it just worked this time. Weird. :p

[quackrabbit]

Cool, glad to hear it worked.

For clarification, the tarball is an alternative to using CVS - you only need to use one or the other.
