[odb-users] install-git bootstrap libodb-qt-1.6.0 fails related to libtool

[Brown, Matt C]

Hello,

I've been trying to adapt basic support for google protocol buffers for odb (not relevant, but interesting!).  I started with libodb-qt from git, but the basic installation per instructions don't seem to work.  I've included a log.

I have zero expertise in how the autoconf tools work, but it seems that a number of .m4 files are missing compared to the actual distribution.  My guess is there is some implicit step involving configuring libtool (or a system requirement).

I have installed 'build' from the codesynthesis site, as well as tofrodos.  I'm running Fedora Core 13, which meets all the other requirements listed.  I used all the default options during the 'make dist' step.

Thanks,

Please select the optimization level you would like to use:

(1) -O1 [Tries to reduce code size and execution time, without
         performing any optimizations that take a great deal of
         compilation time.]
(2) -O2 [Performs nearly all supported optimizations that do not
         involve a space-speed tradeoff.]
(3) -O3 [Optimize even more.]
(4) -Os [Optimize for size.]
