BlueZ make error

BlueZ make error

[Vikrampal]

Hi,

While building the latest BlueZ, I'm getting below error:

krampal-ubuntu:~/bluez$ sudo make
make --no-print-directory all-am
  CC       client/main.o
client/main.c: In function 'cmd_version':
client/main.c:1098:28: error: 'VERSION' undeclared (first use in this
function)
  rl_printf("Version %s\n", VERSION);
                            ^
client/main.c:1098:28: note: each undeclared identifier is reported only
once for each function it appears in
client/main.c: In function 'main':
client/main.c:1489:18: error: 'VERSION' undeclared (first use in this
function)
   printf("%s\n", VERSION);
                  ^
make[1]: *** [client/main.o] Error 1
make: *** [all] Error 2

Please help me. Thanks!

Why building as superuser?

That could happen if you tempered with either Makefile or config.h files
(both are auto generated).

I suggest running configure (or bootstrap-configure if this is for development)
again.

I could build bluez by running bootstrap-configure, make and make install.
This time not as a superuser. Thanks a lot for your kind advice, it worked!
