I was doing a jhbuild on a fresh environment (nothing built or installed before), and polkit failed here: *** Configuring polkit *** [1/45] ./autogen.sh --prefix /home/federico/jhbuild/install --libdir '/home/federico/jhbuild/install/lib' --disable-static Running autoreconf on test/mocklibc ... src/Makefile.am:2: Libtool library used but `LIBTOOL' is undefined src/Makefile.am:2: The usual way to define `LIBTOOL' is to add `LT_INIT' src/Makefile.am:2: to `configure.ac' and run `aclocal' and `autoconf' again. src/Makefile.am:2: If `LT_INIT' is in `configure.ac', make sure src/Makefile.am:2: its definition is in aclocal's search path. autoreconf: automake failed with exit status: 1 I went into polkit/tests/mocklibc and ran "autoconf -f -i". It complained a little, but then just running jhbuild again worked fine. Maybe polkit/autogen.sh needs to do something about tests/mocklibc before running autofoo on the whole source tree?
I think we just need to make mocklibc not have its own configure.ac and so on - I mean, it's just a couple of C files, it's overkill to make it have its own build system.
