Can't run Make, make script links to specific automake/aclocal version about mbusd HOT 6 CLOSED

Really I already thinking about transition to cmake for a long time. Will try to find some time to make it done. Also created #22 to track work progress.

from mbusd.

I followed the steps here from another project with the same issue apereo/mod_auth_cas#97

I ran "autoreconf -f -i" and then I was able to fully ./configure, make, and make install, and now it is working as expected. It seems it's related to cloning from git as timestamps are not retained and it triggers a rebuild

from mbusd.

Checked out the repo today (master branch), with the same problem on a RaspberryPI.
Automake version 1.11.6

autoreconf -vfi fixed it too.

from mbusd.

Shouldn't all the build aggregates (i.e. Makefile.in aclocal.m4 configure doc/Makefile.in libtool src/Makefile.in) not being checked in?

S.t. in order to compile everyone would have to issue a standard ./configure followed by a make

from mbusd.

@3cky how about a change to a cmake infrastructure? Mainly because I like the syntax of cmake more.

Except that I see the benefits:

• reduction of the aggregated files checked in
• easy packaging (e.g. Debian, rpm) capabilities (best case automated with CI)

@Fohdeesha close it plz
