DetailsIt seems that m4 is missing as a dependency for package bison.
I just discovered that, while trying to compile monit 4.3. ./configure went well but when I issued make I got the folllowing error: [julie@jade monit-4.3]$ make bison -y -dt p.y make: *** [y.tab.c] Broken pipe [julie@jade monit-4.3]$ After a little bit of "google-ing" I found that m4 was needed for bison. After installing it all went well. What about changing the bison and m4 packages dependencies to reflect this ? Before: [root@jade pkg]# pacman -Qi bison Name : bison Version : 1.875-2 ... Depends On : glibc ... Description : The GNU general-purpose parser generator [root@jade pkg]# pacman -Qi m4 Name : m4 Version : 1.4-2 ... Required By : None ... Description : m4 macro processor After: [root@jade pkg]# pacman -Qi bison Name : bison Version : 1.875-2 ... Depends On : glibc m4 ... Description : The GNU general-purpose parser generator [root@jade pkg]# pacman -Qi m4 Name : m4 Version : 1.4-2 ... Required By : bison ... Description : m4 macro processor |
