Summary0000305: Error during the build with clang
DescriptionI tried to configure and build Mercury with clang on my computer but it seems to fail, outputting:

------------------------------------------------
MMAKE_DIR=`pwd`/scripts scripts/mmake MMAKEFLAGS= all
/var/folders/bg/szy711t55qqgs0sssfxdj36h0000gn/T//mmake.ohG6jy:674: warning: undefined variable `DESTDIR'
scripts/Mmake.vars:674: warning: undefined variable `DESTDIR'
Mmake.common:135: warning: undefined variable `DESTDIR'
make[1]: *** No rule to make target `.README.in', needed by `README'. Stop.
make: *** [all] Error 2
------------------------------------------------

I attached the output of the two commands to configure and to build.

Would there is a way this issue could be solved?
Steps To Reproduce$ ./configure --with-cc=clang
$ make

Can you confirm that the hidden file .README.in is present in the top-level of the source
tree you have? It seems to be an issue with make; what version of that are you using?

tantignac (reporter)

Thank you for your answer.

.README.in is in the directory from which I configure and build:

--------------------------------------
$ ./configure --with-cc=clang
[…]
$ ls -alrth .README.in
-rw-r--r--@ 1 thibaudantignac staff 5,1K 30 avr 2013 .README.in
--------------------------------------

The version of make is 3.81:

$ make -v

I can't see anything obviously wrong in the configuration log. What happens if you comment out
the rule at Mmakefile:409

README: .README.in VERSION
        sed 's/@VERSION@/$(VERSION)/g' .README.in > README

This problem appears to be specific to OS X 10.9, every recent version of Mercury is working on 10.8.

Thank you for the tip. Is is building now, hope it will ends without any further issue!

juliensf (administrator)

Please let me know if it is successful or not -- incidentally, what version of Mercury are you
trying to install?

~0000589

tantignac (reporter)

Ok, I'll let you know whent it will be eventually finished.

Concerning the version, it is the 13.05.2 release.

tantignac (reporter)

It worked!

-- Installation complete.

Thank you for your support!
