Hi,
I am trying to ./configure the simulation software (electronics). I have
changed readline.h as follows:

//testing=trivial 2006.07.17
#include <stdio>
#include <readline/readline.h>
#include <readline/history.h>
int main()
{
char* line_read = readline("xx");
add_history(line_read);
}

but I still get the errors:

[root@localhost gnucap-2013-04-23]# ./configure
Configuring gnucap using --prefix=/usr/local
include
lib
test_readline.cc:2:17: fatal error: stdio: No such file or directory
#include <stdio>
^
compilation terminated.
either libtermcap or libreadline is missing - not using readline
modelgen

test_readline.cc:2:31: fatal error: readline/readline.h: No such file or
directory
#include <readline/readline.h>
^
compilation terminated.
either libtermcap or libreadline is missing - not using readline
done

can anyone help?

"gnucap", Debian, Debian clones : $ sudo apt-get install gnucap.

Building gnucap :
$ mkdir gnucap_0.36
$ cd gnucap_0.36/
$ tar xvf gnucap_0.36~20091207.orig.tar.gz
http://ftp.df.lth.se/pub/debian/pool...07.orig.tar.gz
$ tar xvf gnucap_0.36~20091207-2.debian.tar.gz

$ patch -p1 < debian/patches/acs_gnucap.diff
$ patch -p1 < debian/patches/docpaths.diff
$ patch -p1 < debian/patches/fix_runall.diff
$ patch -p1 < debian/patches/typos.diff
$ ./autogen.sh
$ ./configure ( No errors, the older versions will look for old readline, old termcap. )
$ make ( No errors here.)

Another usable new version is gnucap-20140708.tar.gz
http://git.savannah.gnu.org/cgit/gnu...0140708.tar.gz

The configure script doesn't seem to be updated to accept new versions of readline, termcap.
So please do not run ./configure.
The Makefile is OK : 'make' will create the executable`s gnucap, gnucap-modelgen.
And the library libgnucap.so .

Hi knudfl,
Thank you for your reply.
I did make/make install, but I get:

[root@localhost gnucap-20140708]# ./main/O/gnucap
./main/O/gnucap: error while loading shared libraries: libgnucap.so: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory.
Did I miss something?

Re #4.

The new version, gnucap-20140708, is different from the other versions.
The executable`s are much smaller, and will thus depend on libgnucap*.so .

Run # make install
... to get /usr/local/lib/{ libgnucap-default-plugins.so, libgnucap.so },
/usr/local/bin/{ gnucap, gnucap-modelgen }.
And : $ cd /usr/lib*/
# ln -s /usr/local/lib/libgnucap.so
# ln -s /usr/local/lib/libgnucap-default-plugins.so
The executable 'gnucap' is hard coded to look for the *.so in /usr/lib*/ only.

('make install' : libgnucap.so is copied from gnucap-20140708/lib/O/.
Use the find command : $ cd gnucap-20140708/ && find . -name libgnucap.so ).

Hi knudfl,
I wonder if you got my reply. It works - thank you.
