ndt-users list created

[☕Peter Boothe <>]

When you check the repo out from git, you should check it out with all of its submodules with the --recursive flag, which is weirdly not the default (I2util is a submodule).

I just now did, in a fresh temp directory:

  git clone --recursive https://github.com/ndt-project/ndt.git

  cd ndt

  ./bootstrap && ./configure && make

and I ended up with web100clt binary built in the src/ subdirectory.  This was on Ubuntu, but hopefully it also works on OSX?

Good luck!

Hi,

Forgive the newbie-ish nature of this query, but I'm having a terrible time
trying to build the command-line client for Mac OS using the instructions that
came in the file (in the Mac download)

ndt-master/doc/index.html

After uncompressing the downloaded file I get a top-level directory of
~/build/ndt-master.

Within the top-level directory of the un-zipped file (after cd
~/build/ndt-master) we're supposed to do a:
./configure.

However, on the Mac at least, there is no configure file.

There is a configure.ac which implies needing to run autoconf first
and running that yields a configure script. (I had to do an autoreconf
--install first to make it work 'tho).

4 - Running ./configure produces the following errors:
...
checking I2util/util.h usability... no
checking I2util/util.h presence... no
checking for I2util/util.h... no
checking I2util/conf.h usability... no
checking I2util/conf.h presence... no
checking for I2util/conf.h... no
configure: error: in `~/build/ndt-master':
configure: error: I2util required to build NDT

There is an I2util directory in the main ndt-master directory, but it is
empty.

I tried obtaining the I2util directory from the Git repository and
then putting the directory which contained the files config was
complaining about in the ndt-master directory, but that just produced
the same errors.

I tried running autoconf in the I2util directory downloaded, but got
an m4 frozen file error.

Can anyone help me progress with this build please? I tried emailing the
provided address (), but got a delivery failure.
