Dear friends at alsa-project.org,
Thank you for your excellent software. I've been using linux
almost from its beginning. I'm an M.I.T. graduate and professional
computer programmer. I'm having difficulty compiling alsa-utils.
I'm using
- Debian 13.4.0 linux
- gcc 14.2.0
- aclocal 1.17
- gettextize 0.23.1
- autoheader 2.72
- automake 1.17
- autoconf 2.72
- GNU make 4.4.1
I've tried to compile the versions of alsa-utils both from github.com,
and from alsa-project.org .
/-- The procedure that I'm trying, suggested from
https://github.com/alsa-project/alsa-utils/blob/master/INSTALL, is,
cd /usr/src/alsa-utils
cp /usr/share/libtool/build-aux/config.guess .
cp /usr/share/libtool/build-aux/config.sub .
aclocal
gettextize
autoheader
automake --foreign --copy --add-missing
autoconf
./configure
make
\--
Are these the correct config.guess and config.sub that I should
use? Am I running the configuration / compilation commands in the
correct order?
Do you recommend using source code from alsa-project.org, or from
github.com?
After I've figured out how to compile this software, I'd be pleased to make
for you a web page, "How to Compile alsa-utils", that tells exactly how alsa-utils
can be compiled, and that you could put on your web site.
By the way, the link on your site to alsa-compile.sh, "script to
compile latest ALSA sources in an easy way," points to a non-existent
file. I'd be glad to help you with this, as well.
I thank you kindly for your help.
Very truly yours,
Lyman Opie
