Compiling GUILE

Compiling GUILE

[Han-Wen Nienhuys]

Hi,

I'm trying to compile GUILE on a x86_64 machine, to figure out the GC problems

autoreconf: Entering directory `.'
autoreconf: configure.in: not using Gettext
autoreconf: running: aclocal --force -I guile-config -I m4
configure.in:815: warning: macro `AM_GNU_GETTEXT' not found in library
autoreconf: configure.in: tracing
autoreconf: configure.in: adding subdirectory guile-readline to autoreconf
autoreconf: Entering directory `guile-readline'
autoreconf: running: aclocal --force
autoreconf: configure.in: not using Libtool
autoreconf: running: /home/hanwen/usr/pkg/ac/bin/autoconf --force
configure.in:20: error: possibly undefined macro: AC_LIBTOOL_WIN32_DLL
      If this token and others are legitimate, please use m4_pattern_allow.
      See the Autoconf documentation.
configure.in:21: error: possibly undefined macro: AC_PROG_LIBTOOL
autoreconf: /home/hanwen/usr/pkg/ac/bin/autoconf failed with exit status: 1

To satisfy all the dependencies, I installed m4 (1.4.4), autoconf
(2.60) automake (1.10.1)  locally. (sigh.)
How do I get GUILE to actually compile now?

Also, can someone tip me off how I create 64 bit binary on a mixed
32/64 machine?  I assume the default
will generate a 32 bit binary.

Actually I would think the default is to generate 64-bit code, but you can pass
gcc the option "-m32" or "-m64" to force 32-bit or 64-bit code.

Looks like the machine is missing Libtool or at least that its M4 macros
cannot be found.  You need Libtool 1.5.x, *not* Libtool 2.2.

How did you get it to compile last week?  :-)

Thanks,

I used my 32 bit laptop, but that some people complaining :)

Now that we're busy dropping cruft, it would be really nice if we could 
libtool too. (major sigh).

But we don't want to drop supported platforms, so we can't drop
Libtool.  And Libtool is friendly, isn't it?  :-)
