Build error (git master), with patch
Posted: Fri Jul 30, 2021 3:40 pm
Hi,
I tried to build wimlib from git, unfortunately commit 01ce2d43 broke the configure script for me. On autoreconf, the generated version number ends up with a trailing newline in the configure script, causing the '.' ending the comment line at the beginning of the configure script to move to the next line, which is not commented out. This results in a syntax error when trying to run configure.
Snippet from configure showing the bug (single dot on line 4):
Patch attached.
Cheers,
Christian
