Building on macOS

[ad-si]

Describe the bug
I'm trying to build it on macOS.

Environment

• cadaver version: -
• neon version: -
• OS: macOS 12.6.8
• SSL library version: -

To Reproduce

1. autoconf
2. ./configure, which yields:

   checking for gcc... gcc
   checking whether the C compiler works... yes
   checking for C compiler default output file name... a.out
   checking for suffix of executables...
   checking whether we are cross compiling... no
   checking for suffix of object files... o
   checking whether the compiler supports GNU C... yes
   checking whether gcc accepts -g... yes
   checking for gcc option to enable C11 features... none needed
   checking whether make sets $(MAKE)... yes
   checking for a BSD-compatible install... /opt/homebrew/bin/ginstall -c
   ./configure: line 3455: syntax error near unexpected token `0,'
   ./configure: line 3455: `NE_REQUIRE_VERSIONS(0, 27 28 29 30 31 32)'

How can I fix it?

[gstrauss]

litmus depends on the neon library, so I would suggest starting with building neon (https://notroj.github.io/neon/) and telling litmus ./configure where to find it.

@ad-si did you set up the working copy properly?

git clone https://github.com/notroj/litmus
cd litmus
git submodule update --init
./autogen.sh
./configure
make

(If you forgot to init the submodule, then be sure to re-run ./autogen.sh after git submodule update --init)

@gstrauss thanks, I can confirm that it's working with that steps on MacOS 14.5 I just need to install automake

brew install automake

because before that aclocal: command not found.
