Hi,
tried to compile glest source 1.2.1.2. Two things happened, that i cannot figure out, but lets look at it from the beginning:
- extracted sources -> ok
- for i in `find ./`; do dos2unix $i; done -> ok
- cd mk/linux/ and chmod a+x *.sh -> ok
- ./autogen.sh -> first warnings:
aclocal...
mk/autoconf/pkg.m4:5: warning: underquoted definition of PKG_CHECK_MODULES
run info '(automake)Extending aclocal'
or see http://sources.redhat.com/automake/auto ... ng-aclocal
generating Jamconfig.in ...
autoconf
Updating Source symlinks...
Don't know, what to do there, so I just continued- ./configure -> next note

configure:
Notice: This project uses jam (and not make) as build tool.
Don't know, what to do there, checked my installed packages,
-> found boost-jam installed, version is 3.1.4-128
-> line 5663: test: too many arguments, -> hmmm?ok the rest had to be expected:
- jam -a -q -> error
Error: You can't use boostjam for this build
Sorry, i like to play games, but I'm not an expert on building packages, and i never heard of jam. Any help is appreciated
Future Question:
Since it is nice, if there is a rpm done: is it possible for a newb like me to share the result of successful compiling, in order to help others getting around this troubles?
thx in advance
