KDevelop unable to compile. New installation.

[Swerve1000]

Hi there,

I have Ubuntu 9.04 NBR installed on my Samsung NC10 NetBook.

I just installed KDevelop using:

sudo apt-get install KDevelop and everything seemed to install fine.

But when I try to compile a Hello World program, it fails, giving the following output:


cd '/home/me/HelloWorld/debug' && WANT_AUTOCONF_2_5="1" WANT_AUTOMAKE_1_6="1" LC_MESSAGES="C" LC_CTYPE="C" make -k
make all-recursive

Can anyone understand what the problem is?

I would try another IDE, but it is KDevelop we will be using for a class I'm starting, so need to get it working.

Any help is much appreciated.

Thanks very much!

So I have installed an older version of libtool.

Downloaded the tar.gz file of 1.5.26

Then extracted it, entered the directory and entered the following commands:



./configure
make
sudo make install



I then made a new Hello World project, and when I try to build it get this:


cd '/home/me/HW' && WANT_AUTOCONF_2_5="1" WANT_AUTOMAKE_1_6="1" LC_MESSAGES="C" LC_CTYPE="C" make -f Makefile.cvs && mkdir '/home/a/HW/debug' && cd '/home/a/HW/debug' && CXXFLAGS="-O0 -g3" "/home/a/HW/configure" --enable-debug=full && cd '/home/a/HW/debug' && WANT_AUTOCONF_2_5="1" WANT_AUTOMAKE_1_6="1" LC_MESSAGES="C" LC_CTYPE="C" make -k

It certainly seems to progress further than it did before, but still fails to compile.

If anyone has any ideas, they are most welcome as I need to get this working as soon as possible.

many thanks.
