| Description | I have installed postgres and compiled gnunet with postgres and ran bootstrap for exchange. bootstrap: Updating submodules Submodule path 'contrib/gana': checked out 'cbbf44fdd7a0d74a0b216a72daed134ac647c016' Submodule path 'contrib/wallet-core': checked out 'a9923dce3051635bc8489b60512dfac396e5ad25' Submodule path 'doc/prebuilt': checked out 'dac140335967c9c8409698186f0cba0635c7cd7f' make: Entering directory '/home/leitner/cvs/exchange/contrib/gana/gnu-taler-error-codes' recfix --check registry.rec make: recfix: No such file or directory make: *** [Makefile:13: check] Error 127 make: Leaving directory '/home/leitner/cvs/exchange/contrib/gana/gnu-taler-error-codes' What is recfix?

You need to install GNU recutils. Without that, bootstrap fails to generate files from the GANA registry. |
|
|
You could mention that in README, which currently only mentions gnunet, libmicrohattpd and postgres as dependencies. |
|
|
I'm still puzzled why you would even touch contrib. My understanding is that contrib contains externally submitted stuff like "here's an example how you use this stuff" that did not make it into the regular build but might be useful to interested parties. |
|

Eh, please read the README: Build tools for compiling GNUnet from source: ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ - gcc or clang - autoconf >= 2.69 (building from git) - automake >= 1.11.1 (building from git) - recutils >= 1.0 (building from git) - libtool >= 2.2 - makeinfo >= 4.8 - make[*3] - pkgconf or pkg-config - sphinx - sphinx-rtd-theme - sphinx-multiversion |

Well, that's not quite how contrib/ is used here. It used to be non-source resources, and these days Martin even put some "currently unused code" into contrib/. |
|
|
I was talking about Taler and exchange/README and exchange/README.1st mention no such thing. The GNUnet README is lying because a) recutils is not a build tool and b) GNUnet built just fine without recutils being installed. |
|
|
The GNUnet README is not lying because (a) recutils is used as a build tool to generate code from databases, and (b) yes, it is only triggered under certain conditions because prebuilt non-source files are in Git. I've updated the exchange README to also mention the build dependencies there. |
