Hi all -
I've just been trying to compile Geany from the most recent Git snapshot, and came across this error message.
andy@obsidian ~ $ cd geany andy@obsidian ~/geany $ ./configure ./configure: line 1710: syntax error near unexpected token `geany,' ./configure: line 1710: `AM_INIT_AUTOMAKE(geany, 0.15)' andy@obsidian ~/geany $
So, just wondering - has anyone else seen this?
Maybe there's some problem with your automake? What version do you have? On my system:
$ automake --version automake (GNU automake) 1.9.6
Alternatively you may just need to:
make distclean ./autogen.sh

Hi Nick - Thanks very much for that! (and apologies for my delay in replying - I've been having a few net problems, but all sorted out now.... :)
That sounds good, I'll try that! This was my first go at building using the Git snapshot, so I think I may have done something wrong. I'll just check the process - is it just -
make distclean ./autogen.sh ./configure make su make install make clean ?
