From 41b00707e20f0c07e0dce055884c773de4b82612 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Dan Nicholson Date: Wed, 12 Dec 2007 08:48:30 -0800 Subject: autoconf: More informative errors when pkg-config macros undefined Added a check that PKG_PROG_PKG_CONFIG is defined before calling it so the user can see a proper error. Without it, the generated configure script will just pass on to the next statement and bomb with a strange shell syntax error. --- configure.ac | 6 ++++++ 1 file changed, 6 insertions(+) (limited to 'configure.ac') diff --git a/configure.ac b/configure.ac index 4cd641b136b..40c39b99122 100644 --- a/configure.ac +++ b/configure.ac @@ -28,6 +28,12 @@ AC_PROG_CXX AC_PATH_PROG(MAKE, make) AC_PATH_PROG(MKDEP, makedepend) AC_PATH_PROG(SED, sed) + +dnl Make sure the pkg-config macros are defined +m4_ifdef([PKG_PROG_PKG_CONFIG],,[ + AC_MSG_ERROR([The pkg-config autoconf macros are not defined. + Did you run 'make configure'?])] +) PKG_PROG_PKG_CONFIG() dnl LIB_DIR - library basename -- cgit v1.2.3
