Problem compiling new upstream version, what to do?
I'm trying to package the new version of xdialog: Xdialog-2.1.2. The upstream
tarball doesn't compile on my system. When I run configure and make I get:
RANLIB@: Command not found
I found a way to fix that error by running autogen.sh in the source tree.
Should I repackage the upstream tarball or email the upstream author about
this problem?
Thanks,
Stan
