README build instructions omit details #80

There is another issue closed in Nov 2022 that cited the same problem.
error: possibly undefined macro: AC_PROG_LIBTOOL |
It would be nice to have a list of packages that this depends upon, so that one can ensure all dependencies are installed prior to build. |
To regenerate the build system you need |
To 'make' (compile) and install the files offered as source files through the repository, firstly make sure you have the right environment to compile and create from source. (On Ubuntu) Run script: Now To fit my needs I added some options: Next: And finally: will overwrite any pre-installed ntfs-3g modules. DO consider if you need the tools. The Windows tool 'ntfsusermap.exe' was not found to have been compiled through this extensive change! NOTE: Trying to use the 'quick-install' instruction sent me on a 4,5 hour discovery tour though Linux universe. I ran into many interesting names, solutions and problems I will likely never need in my profession. I expect companions on this seemingly never ending trip to nowhere, to stumble upon this message in a bottle. I will express the hope for the future our information on Linux systems will improve as it did for a while since around 2017. "I will walk the fine line between time left in my projects and time wasted in the multiverse of Linux non-information, to add usefull, time-saving data". Sorry for the unintended column I ended up making here and in my recent issue in this thread. |
The README build instructions specify using
./configure
, but the repo does not contain the./configure
file.I have tried
autoconf
error: configure.ac:36: error: possibly undefined macro: AM_INIT_AUTOMAKE If this token and others are legitimate, please use m4_pattern_allow. See the Autoconf documentation.
autoreconf -i
again, error: configure.ac:337: warning: macro 'AM_PATH_LIBGCRYPT' not found in library configure.ac:199: error: possibly undefined macro: AC_PROG_LIBTOOL If this token and others are legitimate, please use m4_pattern_allow. See the Autoconf documentation. configure.ac:246: error: possibly undefined macro: AC_MSG_ERROR configure.ac:337: error: possibly undefined macro: AM_PATH_LIBGCRYPT configure.ac:342: error: possibly undefined macro: AC_MSG_WARN autoreconf: /usr/bin/autoconf failed with exit status: 1
