Hi all
Downloaded everything fresh from github.
tried to compile the libdivecomputer today, but could not pass ./configure, see error below.
should I go back to version 0.80 instead of 0.9?

I assume with download you mean you cloned the git repo?

That shouldn't make any difference because the build system is still the same.

Did your run both these commands:
autoreconf --install --force ./configure

Hi Jef
I assume with download you mean you cloned the git repo?
yes, I issued git clone <github address>
autoreconf --install --force ./configure
that is what I remember doing.
I did again yesterday, the same result, the error occured whendoing "./configure"
Then, I did a new clone from github, this time it worked without a problem.
Very strange, problem with github or my computer? Anyway, problem solved, somehow.
