Building from Source on Linux

[Dr. En Ami]

When I do the following on Scientific Linux:

Code: Select all

git clone http://github.com/DynareTeam/dynare.git
cd dynare
git submodule update --init
autoreconf -si

I get the warning

Code: Select all

configure.ac:58: warning: macro `AM_PROG_AR' not found in library

and then the program seems to hang (I do not get any other output and I am not returned to the command prompt).

Hi,

What is your version of automake? The minimal required version is 1.11.2.

Note that automake is only required if you compile from git. If you use the source tarballs of the stable release, or the source snapshots of the unstable version, you do not need it.

Hi, The version is 1.11.1. Thank you for the clarification.
