no "./configure" file - cannot install
If you checkout from git, you need to run autogen.sh.
Hi, Behdad, 1. I downloaded from cgit.freedesktop.org/fontconfig. Is this "checkout from git"? 2. running autogen is not documented in either README or INSTALL. 3. I typed "source autogen.sh" and my terminal was killed with no Makefile generated. (fontconfig-2.8.0) bob schaefer bob s.

Hello, I got farther this time, but am still having problems. I am using "pacman" to install fontconfig and pacman is sensitive to warnings/errors. This is the message returned from either "make" or "make install": Running autoheader Running libtoolize --copy --force Running automake -a configure.in: installing `./install-sh' configure.in: installing `./missing' doc/Makefile.am: installing `./depcomp' doc/Makefile.am:199: `doc_DATA' is used but `docdir' is undefined I think pacman is taking the last statement as an error and fails the installation. Is this a "make" fault? bob schaefer On Jan 26, 2010, at 12:46 PM, bugzilla-daemon@freedesktop.org wrote: > http://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=26166 > > > > > > --- Comment #3 from Behdad Esfahbod <freedesktop@behdad.org> 2010-01-26 09:46:09 PST --- > (In reply to comment #2) >> Hi, Behdad, >> >> 1.

I have no idea what pacman is or what the problem with your build is.
