Thread: [Visualpython-users] Compile error what is wrong

This is my another attempt to get VP installed. I have installed
almost everything I can think of. previously, VP will compile to some
stage but now make ends prematurely. Here is part of build.log
//////////////////////////////////////////////////
packages/numpy/core/include -fpic -DPIC -ftemplate-depth-120 -DNDEBUG
-MMD -MF atomic_queue.d -MT atomic_queue.d atomic_queue.lo -c -o
atomic_queue.lo ./core/util/atomic_queue.cpp
libtool: compile: unable to infer tagged configuration
libtool: compile: specify a tag with `--tag'

////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////
What is wrong?
 thanks

I've not seen that error before. What Linux distribution are you using?

I googled "libtool: compile: unable to infer tagged configuration" and 
the first reference

http://www.mail-archive.com/li...@gn.../msg08037.html

commented, "just use the latest version of automake/autoconf/libtool and 
the problem should magically go away".

A subsidiary Google reference said, "By passing --tag=CC to libtool 
invocations. You can probably edit the Makefile(s), or inputs from this 
project, or simply rerun configure with something like ./configure 
LIBTOOL='/usr/bin/libtool --tag=CC'." I also found this advice: "You 
have to modify the Makefile and common/Makefile, add the extra parameter 
"--tag CC" to the libtool command, everything will be ok."

Mandriva 2010 well updated to keep up with repo
Sorry for late reply

Bruce,
Which distros are known to you to compile and run VPython smoothly?  (Other
than Ubuntu 9.10, the special case we've discussed before.)

I have no way of knowing. The only distribution with which I have 
personal experience is Ubuntu.

So the question is whether there is anyone on this list with experience 
with Mandriva that can help Steve?
