Installation Error

[ghoshal]

Hi,

I am trying to install Crass in my system and I am continuously getting an error message while running ./configure. The ./autogen.sh step ran without any issues. I have already installed xerces-c-3.1.3 and zlib-1.2.8. Here is the error message.

checking for a BSD-compatible install... /usr/bin/install -c
checking whether build environment is sane... yes
checking for gawk... gawk
checking whether make sets $(MAKE)... yes
./configure: line 2805: LT_INIT: command not found
./configure: line 2806: syntax error near unexpected token C++' ./configure: line 2806:LT_LANG(C++)'

Please help.

Thanks,

Bibaswan

Sounds like you've got the same issue brought up in #74. The solution there was that libtool wasn't installed correctly or wasn't the right version. See if that works for you.

Hi,

I had already checked that thread and did check the libtool installation. The version currently installed in 2.4 and when I tried to yum install libtool, it said that the latest version is installed already.

That was the reason I had to create this thread. Please help.

Thanks,

Hmm, ok I'm not sure what's wrong. What operating system are you running? and what version of the dependancies are you using... gcc, autoconf, etc. I'll try and create a virtual machine and replicate the error
