Hello & thank you for the answer.
in the subfolder ./trunk/pd i can read the INSTALL.TXT file... which tells me to make a ./configure in /trunk/pd/src ...
this INSTALl.txt is a) outdated
i thought so.
b) meant for the source release(!) rather than an SVN-snapshot
the latter means: it is considered bad style to put anything "generated" (mostly binaries, but also scripts, like "configure") into VCS. hence configure (which is generated from configure.ac) is missing in the SVN.
ok.
to generate everything needed in order to run "configure" (btw, nowadays this is in .../pd rather than .../pd/src) just run (in .../pd): $ ./autogen.sh
so, since autogen.sh is also a script, it is not included in the svn-snapshot...? can you please tell me what to do, if i want to compile the snapshot then? - copy the scripts into?? or better copy the source out of the svn-maintained folder, and copying the scripts needed to create the configure script... etc...?
where do i get those scripts from...? copying them from a source-release? copying the snapshot-sources into a source-release??
is there a step-by-step tutorial for compiling a svn-snapshot?
thanks. ingo
