LLfan Posted December 11, 2003 Share Posted December 11, 2003 Alright, attempting to compile Xine and after ./configure I am supposed to 'make check'. I get: bash: make check: command not foundSO I try make: bash: make: command not foundAm I missing something? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zox Posted December 11, 2003 Share Posted December 11, 2003 I would try finding RPM for your distro but if you insist on compiling then you need command make and make install.They are part of "Devlopment Tools" package I believe.Try installing all Development tools and then try again compilation.

GolfProRM Posted December 11, 2003 Share Posted December 11, 2003 are you doing it as root? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LLfan Posted December 11, 2003 Author Share Posted December 11, 2003 are you doing it as root?tried it as both user and root. BTW, I thought make install was the only portion that needed root. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
teacher Posted December 11, 2003 Share Posted December 11, 2003 TGZ packagesTG or Tarball packagesTar.gz, etc. packagesYou did not specify the extension of the package you are trying to "make" so here are a few tips to get you pointed in the right direction.

LLfan Posted December 11, 2003 Author Share Posted December 11, 2003 I'm a little confused. Here is the package I am trying to install: xine-lib-1-rc2It came as a tar.gz teacher but I had already extracted it. I cd to the directory, ./configure (went just fine) but make gives me a bad bash command as stated above. I tired installing development tools but still no good.Any other ideas?

teacher Posted December 12, 2003 Share Posted December 12, 2003 Did you do some research to see what your dependencies are? Where is the file located? Maybe a clean download of your file will make a difference? Possibly corrupt? Of course I am just guessing. I went and looked and mine was installed as an RPM with all dependencies included so I did not have to do anything extra to install. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

quint Posted December 12, 2003 Share Posted December 12, 2003 Here's all I could find...hth:Xine install, etc.Found "rpm", but it was for Mandrake. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zox Posted December 12, 2003 Share Posted December 12, 2003 Well, if RPM's for Suse are what you are after, then this site should come in handy.It has all kinds of RPMs for Suse, as well as Xine.PackmanThis is Xine related RPM'sXine related RPM'sXine-ui Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bruno Posted December 12, 2003 Share Posted December 12, 2003 Hi MikeI know this advice is coming too late . . but for future reference ( I know you like to venture exotic packages :'( ):1). $ ./configure --info or ./configure --help often can give you lots of info about the special parameters you can give ./configure2). "make test" won´t work if you don´t do "make" first . . . So: $ cd package$ ./configure -info$ ./configure$ make$ make test$ su< password ># make install# make clean Bruno Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
