In attempting to build Pike 8.0 I was met with a slew of errors. I used the make command as specified.
the errors begin...
cd src && ./run_autoconfig . ./run_autoconfig: 1: ./run_autoconfig: autoconf: not found ./run_autoconfig: 70: [: Illegal number: Warning: Using autoconf < 2.50. Don't do this if you want to make export.
followed by a hundred or so lines of
./run_autoconfig: 139: ./run_autoconfig: autoheader: not found ./run_autoconfig: 143: ./run_autoconfig: Running autoconf in .
with variations on the path.
I was successfully able to build Pike 7.8 and play around with it using the same method. Can any body provide any advice to get me up and running? I'm running Linux Mint 17 Qiana 32 bit XFCE.
If you’re trying to build pike directly from git, you’ll need automaker and friends already installed. A release package shouldn’t require this (the configure scripts should already have been run.) As far as autoconf versions go, I use 2.59 fairly successfully, though there may be others that work as well.

Ok, so I was able to make it out of the hole I was previously in. But I'm still not completely out of harm's way.

The above is the result of running make.
There is a lot of (Dependencies failed) which is odd because some of those the make command had me install before I could even get to this point, like GMP.
Thanks again for all of your help, Robert
