[BUG] Installing git-gui (2.27.0)

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

 



Hi,

This is what I found when trying to install the whole git package on the
NonStop TNS/E platform:

 DEST /usr/local/share/git-gui/lib
    INSTALL 644 tclIndex
install: cannot stat 'lib/tclIndex': No such file or directory
Makefile:293: recipe for target 'install' failed

I?m not sure why we are only hitting this now at 2.27.0. We don?t use
git-gui anyway on this platform as it has no GUI interface. It looks like
the install script runs auto_mkindex that actually does nothing in our case,
so lib/tclIndex is not built.

This does block the install from completing successfully. To bypass, I added
the following:

index f10caedaa7..943febaf75 100644
--- a/git-gui/Makefile
+++ b/git-gui/Makefile
@@ -256,6 +256,7 @@ lib/tclIndex: $(ALL_LIBFILES) GIT-GUI-VARS
          $(foreach p,$(PRELOAD_FILES),source $p\;) \
          auto_mkindex lib $(patsubst lib/%,%,$(sort $(ALL_LIBFILES))) \
        | $(TCL_PATH) $(QUIET_2DEVNULL); then : ok; \
+        echo >>$@ ; \
        else \
         echo >&2 "    * $(TCL_PATH) failed; using unoptimized loading"; \
         rm -f $@ ; \

Regards,
Randall
