These notes intend to help people working on the CVS versions of
|
|
Bison.
|
|
|
|
* Requirements
|
|
|
|
Only the sources are installed in the CVS repository (to ease the
|
|
maintenance, merges etc.), therefore you will have to the maintainer
|
|
tools we depend upon:
|
|
|
|
- Automake 1.7
|
|
|
|
- Autoconf 2.54
|
|
|
|
- Gettext 0.11.5
|
|
|
|
Only building the initial full source tree will be a bit painful,
|
|
later, a plain `cvs update -P & make' should be sufficient.
|
|
|
|
* First CVS checkout
|
|
|
|
Obviously, if you are reading these notes, you did manage to check out
|
|
Bison from CVS. For the records, you will find all the relevant
|
|
information on:
|
|
|
|
http://savannah.gnu.org/cvs/?group_id=56
|
|
|
|
The next step is asking the installation of all the missing files:
|
|
|
|
$ ./bootstrap
|
|
|
|
And there you are! Just
|
|
|
|
$ ./configure && make && make check
|
|
|
|
At this point, there should be no difference between your local copy,
|
|
and the CVS master copy:
|
|
|
|
$ cvs diff
|
|
|
|
should output no difference, except maybe the date in po/*.po files.
|
|
|
|
Enjoy!
|
|
|
|
* Troubleshooting
|
|
|
|
Unfortunately the current Gettext still does not include all the
|
|
needed tools so that the bootstrapping always perform successfully.
|
|
|
|
If you experience problems, I suggest the following:
|
|
|
|
1. Do a regular CVS checkout
|
|
|
|
2. Fetch a recent tarball in:
|
|
http://www.lrde.epita.fr/~akim/download/
|
|
|
|
3. Extract it
|
|
|
|
4. Override the content of your checkout with the content of this
|
|
tarball, i.e.:
|
|
cp -r bison-1.49b/* bison-cvs
|
|
|
|
5. Proceed on ./configure && make etc.
