1 | These notes intend to help people working on the CVS versions of |
| 2 | Bison. Only the sources are installed in the CVS repository (to ease | |
| 3 | the maintenance, merges etc.), therefore you will have to the | |
| 4 | maintainer tools we depend upon: | |
| 5 | ||
| 6 | - Automake 1.6 or 1.6.1 | |
| 7 | - Autoconf 2.53 or better | |
| 8 | (actually, CVS Autoconf provides a better autoreconf... | |
| 9 | http://www.lrde.epita.fr/~akim/download/autoconf-2.53a.tar.gz) | |
| 10 | - Gettext 0.10.1 | |
| 11 | ||
| 12 | Only building the initial full source tree will be a bit painful, | |
| 13 | later, a plain `cvs update -P & make' should be sufficient. | |
| 14 | ||
| 15 | * First CVS checkout | |
| 16 | ||
| 17 | Obviously, if you are reading these notes, you did manage to check out | |
| 18 | Bison from CVS. For the records, you will find all the relevant | |
| 19 | information on: | |
| 20 | ||
| 21 | http://savannah.gnu.org/cvs/?group_id=56 | |
| 22 | ||
| 23 | The next step is asking the installation of all the missing files: | |
| 24 | ||
| 25 | $ autoreconf -f -v -i | |
| 26 | ||
| 27 | Unfortunately, this will change a few files that should not have been | |
| 28 | replaced, so remove them, and ask for the original copies: | |
| 29 | ||
| 30 | $ rm Makefile.am configure.in m4/Makefile.am | |
| 31 | $ cvs update | |
| 32 | ||
| 33 | (Hopefully, these steps will no longer be needed in the future.) | |
| 34 | Because of these changes, running autoreconf a second, and last time, | |
| 35 | is needed. Pay attention that the options are different this time: | |
| 36 | ||
| 37 | $ autoreconf -v -f | |
| 38 | ||
| 39 | And there you are! Just | |
| 40 | ||
| 41 | $ ./configure && make && make check | |
| 42 | ||
| 43 | At this point, there should be no difference between your local copy, | |
| 44 | and the CVS master copy: | |
| 45 | ||
| 46 | $ cvs diff | |
| 47 | ||
| 48 | should output no difference, except maybe the date in po/*.po files. | |
| 49 | ||
| 50 | Enjoy! | |
