Hello all,

I have a Rio S-series mp3 player that I would like to get working with Suse 9.3. I have been attempted to build a rioutil rpm, per the instructions in the readme file:

[HTML]./configure --with-usbdevfs
make dist
cp rioutil-1.5.0br3.tar.gz /usr/src/packages/SOURCES
rpmbuild -bb rioutil-usbdevfs.spec[/HTML]


However, I have had no success, despite multiple attempts and numerous google searches. Things seem to work through the last step, where I get:

[HTML]source='rio.c' object='rio.lo' libtool=yes \
depfile='.deps/rio.Plo' tmpdepfile='.deps/rio.TPlo' \
depmode=gcc3 /bin/sh ../depcomp \
/bin/sh ../libtool --mode=compile gcc -DHAVE_CONFIG_H -I. -I. -I../include -I../include -g -O2 -c -o rio.lo `test -f 'rio.c' || echo './'`rio.c
libtool: ltconfig version `' does not match ltmain.sh version `1.4a'
Fatal configuration error. See the libtool docs for more information.
make[1]: *** [rio.lo] Error 1
make[1]: Leaving directory `/usr/src/packages/BUILD/rioutil-1.5.0br3/librioutil'
make: *** [all-recursive] Error 1
error: Bad exit status from /var/tmp/rpm-tmp.62885 (%build)


RPM build errors:
Bad exit status from /var/tmp/rpm-tmp.62885 (%build)[/HTML]

Whatever is going on here is over this newbie's head. Thank you in advance for your help; please let me know if there is any other information you need.

Thanks,
Brian

could you check that you can actually compile(and install) the program you want to make rpm of ,before trying to use rpmbuild to make a rpm package!

rch,

I am not on my suse machine right now, but I can tell you that "make" fails with an error similar to that below; it also includes:

[HTML]libtool: ltconfig version `' does not match ltmain.sh version `1.4a'
Fatal configuration error. See the libtool docs for more information.[/HTML]

Not sure what this means, though. I will run it tomorrow and post the error message. Thanks for your interest!

Brian

Here is the error it gives me at the make command:

[HTML]Making all in librioutil

I've done some searching and found a person who seems to be having the exact same problem at

Any assistance is greatly appreciated!!!

try compiling again.
in the source directory do
autoconf
after autoconf
do
./configure
make && make install
if everything works out
then try building the rpm package.

Tried automake command, but once again make failed. Gave the following error message:

[HTML]Making all in librioutil
make[1]: Entering directory `/home/brianbahr/downloads/rioutil-1.5.0br3/librioutil'

What do these errors mean? Any other ideas?

Thanks for all your help!!

Brian

It works!!!

Here's how I did it:

libtoolize --force
./configure --with-usbdevfs
make
make install

So far everything works great. Thanks for your help rch!
