Autoconf broken

[tcat-qldom]

Hi,

Many thanks for creating this repo.
Just tried to automake, but autoconf seems broken, it does not recongnise some macros

onfigure.ac:48: error: possibly undefined macro: AC_DISABLE_STATIC
If this token and others are legitimate, please use m4_pattern_allow.
See the Autoconf documentation.
configure.ac:216: error: possibly undefined macro: AC_CHECK_LIBM
configure.ac:314: error: possibly undefined macro: AM_GLIB_DEFINE_LOCALEDIR
configure.ac:572: error: possibly undefined macro: AM_GLIB_GNU_GETTEXT

I am on Mate 1.8.1
ii autoconf 2.69-8 all automatic configure script builder
ii automake 1:1.14.1-4+deb8u1 all Tool for generating GNU Standards-compliant Makefiles

Hi. You need to install libtool and gettext before running autoreconf.

Hi,

Thank you.

I figured out, also needed 'mate-common', and all sorts of `lib*-dev' packages.
Also needed to undefine G_DISABLE_DEPRECATED, I did not how to do it, so I just removed the symbol -DG_DISABLE_DEPRECATED in 'config.status'.

Now I am getting this, cannot make it further.

parrillada-project-type-chooser.o: In function 'parrillada_project_type_chooser_build_recent':
/usr/src/parrillada/src/parrillada-project-type-chooser.c:330: undefined reference to 'gtk_recent_info_get_gicon'

I am on Debian `Jessie'
Many thanks.

That means you need to install mate-desktop-devel (build with gtk2) or whatever package provides pkgconfig(mate-desktop-2.0) in Debian.

Please try with parrillada 1.18.0. Just updated all the code and ported it to gtk3 and Caja 1.18.0. The old gtk2 code of version 1.6.2 is mostly deprecated and very outdated.
