Porteus

Hello, I am trying to build armagetron 0.3.1 from the launchpad, getted by bzr. to have their new features

But when I try to compile, the commande make finally say :

/bin/sh ../ylwrap `test -f 'tools/values/vParser.ypp' || echo './'`tools/values/vParser.ypp y.tab.c vParser.cpp y.tab.h vParser.h y.output vParser.output -- yacc
../ylwrap: line 108: yacc: command not found
make[2]: *** [vParser.cpp] Error 1
make[2]: Leaving directory `/home/guest/Downloads/armagetronad/src'
make[1]: *** [install-recursive] Error 1
make[1]: Leaving directory `/home/guest/Downloads/armagetronad/src'
make: *** [install-recursive] Error 1

So what is ylwrap?
where can I find ylwrap who fit with porteus both x86 and x86_64?

ylwrap is part of yacc, you can try to install bison from slackware but i am not shure of this.

It is a wrapper for yacc and lex (from what I can tell). Using my google-foo, I found that ylwrap exists (in some form at least) in automake, gettext, and kdesk...if installing bison or yacc doesn't work, maybe try automake.

One of the best tools that I've found for developing is pkgs.org. They list a ton of packages, and they list every file and directory in a package. Their search tools aren't very useful for finding individual files (unless you use advanced search and know the full path), but google is. Use google's advanced search, search for ylwrap, in site/domain pkgs.org, and you'll see a list of linux packages with files containing ylwrap.

thank you, finally I used bison to compile this game.
