[SOLVED] dvb-apps and Slackware 14.1

stormtracknole · 12-15-2013, 11:32 AM

Trying to build the latest dvb-apps on Slackware 14.1 and I'm running into the following issue.

Code:

installing scan files
install: cannot stat 'atsc/*': No such file or directory
make[2]: *** [install] Error 1
make[2]: Leaving directory `/tmp/SBo/dvb-apps-hg/util/scan'
make[1]: *** [install] Error 2
make[1]: Leaving directory `/tmp/SBo/dvb-apps-hg/util'
make: *** [install] Error 2

The make process goes through fine, but it's failing during make install. Upon further inspection, this is where things are hanging:

Code:

../util/scan/Makefile
install::
        @echo installing scan files
        @mkdir -p $(DESTDIR)$(sharedir)/dvb/atsc
        @mkdir -p $(DESTDIR)$(sharedir)/dvb/dvb-c
        @mkdir -p $(DESTDIR)$(sharedir)/dvb/dvb-s
        @mkdir -p $(DESTDIR)$(sharedir)/dvb/dvb-t
        @install -m 664 atsc/* $(DESTDIR)$(sharedir)/dvb/atsc/
        @install -m 664 dvb-c/* $(DESTDIR)$(sharedir)/dvb/dvb-c/
        @install -m 664 dvb-s/* $(DESTDIR)$(sharedir)/dvb/dvb-s/
        @install -m 664 dvb-t/* $(DESTDIR)$(sharedir)/dvb/dvb-t/

I'm pretty much stumped. Any ideas? Thank you ahead of time.

seems that the stuff in that directory got removed a few days ago: see util/scan/README for hints where to get files to populate that.

Of course you might have your reasons for compiling dvb-apps, but just as a hint: I am using Kaffeine for DVB-T, and it doesn't have any additional dependencies on a stock Slackware 14.x system. Its inbuilt channel scan is way faster than anything else I have tried.

+1 for Kaffeine.

I use some custom scripts to in order to record OTA. No GUI, just a crontab. Thank you for the suggestions though. :-)

Ponce,

Thank you! That did the trick!
