ltconfig is gone with newer versions of libtool. Unless I'm mistaken, applications should either include a copy of ltconfig (unfortunately, old combinations of automake/libtool created just a link) or get fixed. In the top source dir, run: alocal ; automake -a -c ; autoconf This should solve your problems. I tried what you said:
%prep
%setup -q
%patch0 -p1
aclocal; automake -a -c; autoconf
%build
cp /usr/share/libtool/{config.sub,config.guess,ltconfig,ltmain.sh} config/
export CFLAGS="$RPM_OPT_FLAGS"
export CC_OPTIONS="$RPM_OPT_FLAGS"
...
but I obtain the following message error:

What have I done wrong?

It doesn't use automake. :) With libtoolize -c --force ; configure ... one can set up the source tarball and compile with "make all". In your spec file, you may need to take out the first "cp" line from the %build section and most likely any "aclocal" and "autoconf" calls, too. The scilab distribution is broken when it doesn't come with a working set of files and keeps local macros in aclocal.m4 instead of acinclude.m4. It will need to get fixed, not only for libtool > 1.3.5. Thanks for your answer If I understand correctly what you wrote, Scilab will have anyway problems to build on RH72? Is that it? Maybe I should wait for the RH SRPMS... Daniel The way the rpm's spec file sets up the code is incompatible. Basically, you should need to run just "configure ; make all" like the README suggests. You should not need to copy over libtool files from your installation like the spec file does. If you really needed to rebuild autoconf/automake/libtool files, this would not work completely with scilab because their setup is broken. I'm not a Red Hat employee, but since the Powertools CD is no longer produced, there probably won't be any offically supported RH rpms for scilab. |
