Re: [CentOS] libtiff build error

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]



 ./configure
 make clean
 make

Not going to get into how much of a bad idea this is, or how it should
really be in an rpm.

 But the make had the following error:

 ./libtool: line 837: g++: command not found

This one line has your winner. You lack the proper build tools to
complete your desired task. You're missing the gcc-c++, and probably
several other things you'll need.


 make[2]: Leaving directory `/root/tiff-3.8.2/libtiff'

This line would seem to imply that you're building software as root.
This is generally a very bad idea. If the code's cleanup scripts are
wrong, or if there's a typo... it's running as root and could very
easily rm -rf your system, instead or rm -rf the buildroot or tmp
files its using, not to mention other nefarious code tricks that make
this a bad idea.

 and make install did not work:

that's because you had prior errors.


 So what is missing?  And where do I start from.

You should really consider reading up on compiling software and/or
building custom rpms.

 It looks like things are not 'broken' from how far it got.

They're not broken because they haven't gotten that far yet. You're
missing the compiler required to make/break them.
