Can you attach a log catching the make output? It's difficult deciphering the ticket description. Something like…

make > make.log 2>&1

should do the trick.

here is the output of make > make.log 2>&1 —-

We've discussed this on the list already, if I'm not wrong. The problem was with a system setup error in that the top-level "libtool" script we ship (it's in the repository) doesn't have the base_compile variable used, so it is _your_ system re-generating it at ./autogen.sh time, and it is regenerating a bogus version, which works with bash but not with the /bin/sh you have on your system.

exporting SHELL=/bin/bash should fix the case for you, but you'd better either use the version of libtool you find in the repository/package (ie: don't run autogen.sh or revert the change of libtool) or fix the libtoolize you have in your system (report bug upstream).

[darkblueb]

a workaround is

./configure SHELL=/bin/bash && make

[strk]

I've realized there's no libtool script in the repository, but is created by ./configure trough the AC_PROG_LIBTOOL macro call deined by macros/libtool.m4. The same macro expands the @LIBTOOL@ variable to $(SHELL) $(top_srcdir)/libtool.

Supposedly, the macro is checking if the shell supports the += construct, and correctly finding it's _not_ in the darkblueb case (we checked on IRC). Despite this recognition, the SHELL variable is still set to /bin/sh if no CONFIG_SHELL is set by the user.

So, workaround would be appending CONFIG_SHELL=/bin/bash or SHELL=/bin/bash to the ./configure call. A better fix would be making sure the libtool script only uses POSIX compliant constructs…

[darkblueb]

a new checkout, a new build, a new failure…

in debian there appears to be a concept of a system shell, aside from the user shell. Resetting the system shell back to sh from dash is also a workaround.

   dpkg-reconfigure dash

[strk]

System shell is /bin/sh by definition, usually a symlink to one or another actual shell. Is this symlink you're changing ?

Is your personal shell "dash" now and before ? What was /bin/sh linked to now and before ?

[darkblueb]

when I installed the system, my user shell appeared to be bash, though I have no proof of that. I definitely changed to bash immiediately when I had this trouble on the first build. Changing the user shall to bash explicitly had no effect, which supports the fact that it was bash to start.

in /bin sh is a symlink to bash right now. there is another link called sh.distrib → dash, and another rbash → bash

[strk]

Everytime you change something you should call 'make distclean' and run ./configure again, otherwise you may hit some caches.

See ​http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=621743 for the same bug reported on debian wheezy (for another package being built) In that bug is reported that setting SHELL in Makefile.in fixed another such case. I've committed this as r7921 and with r7922 I've fixed "make distclean" further.

Please try with the updated version, if it still fails after a "make distclean" and a "./configure" please report:

# env | grep SHELL # grep -A1 understands config.log # grep SHELL liblwgeom/Makefile # grep LIBTOOL liblwgeom/Makefile

If it works, consider gettin back to "dash" shell and trying again, reportin the same informations when it fails.

[strk]

Assuming fixed after 3 months of inactivity. @darkblue: feel free to reopen if not.
