I am trying to add some files to GCC source code, but after running
autoreconf --install --force
i get that error
libtool: definition of this LT_INIT comes from libtool 2.2.7a.
libtool: You should recreate aclocal.m4 with macros from libtool 2.4.6 Debian-2.4.6-14
libtool: and run autoconf again.
even without any source files added if i reconfigure i get the same error.
that's very important as i am adding new functionality to gcc
Using autoreconf --install --force
instead of just autoreconf
is a bit questionable in this case, but maybe it's for the best. I am surprised that it did not take care of aclocal.m4
for you automatically, but that's a generated file. If everything else is ok then you ought to be able to simply delete the current aclocal.m4
and run autoreconf
to generate a new one.
If you have an autom4te.cache
subdirectory then it would probably be best to delete that first (it will be regenerated by autoreconf
, too).
