[Asterisk-bsd] chan_capi / liblinuxcapi build error on FreeBSD 6.1-RELEASE

[Aragon Gouveia]

Hi,

I've tried mailing Jan Stocker about this, but so far no response.  I've
tried posting on the freebsd-isdn list but later realised that it might not
be the best place to look for help with this.  I was hoping someone else
might have had this problem and could help me fix it.

I have Jan's chan_capi and liblinuxcapi ports installed in my ports tree on
a FreeBSD 6.1-RELEASE machine.  liblinuxcapi will not build.  Here is the
transcript:

---

Please report the problem to Jan.Stocker at t-online.de [maintainer] and attach the
"/usr/ports/comms/liblinuxcapi/work/isdn4k-utils-CVS-2005-02-01/capi20/config.log"
including the output of the failure of your make command. Also, it might be
a good idea to provide an overview of all packages installed on your system
(e.g. an ls /var/db/pkg).
*** Error code 1

Stop in /usr/ports/comms/liblinuxcapi.

I think the problem is automake/autoconf related.  I've tried going into the
capi20 directory, deleting the configure script and recreating it by running
autoconf259.  The build then progresses further, but then configure can't
find automake, autoheader, aclocal, and autoconf.  I have autoconf 2.59 and
automake 1.9 installed on this machine and have tried creating symlinks to
the versioned binaries in /usr/local/bin.  Configure then finds the above,
but is now complaining about libtool:

---

gmake: *** [Makefile.in] Error 1

I'm in a bit over my head here, hence the random hacks at a fix.  Can anyone
help me with this please?  Looks like a library dependancy issue to me...


Thanks,
Aragon
