[Xapian-discuss] Ticket #282: omindex-assorted-enhancements.patch woes

[Frank John Bruzzaniti]

I would really like to try out the features in the patch above.  But I
can't ever seem to get the resulting omindex.cc to "make".

I tried updating to rev 10801 from the SVN then run /bootstrap but then
I seem to get errors compiling everything when I try and do "make" (I'm
using ubuntu 8.10).

So I thought I'd try an apply the patch to the latest stable version
1.0.10.  The patch created a reject file but I edited in the two lines
it rejected myself.

But when I run "make" I get the following errors:

omindex.o: In function `main':
/home/frankie/Desktop/xapian-omega-1.0.10/omindex.cc:874: undefined
reference to `read_config_file()'
/home/frankie/Desktop/xapian-omega-1.0.10/omindex.cc:987: undefined
reference to `log_dir'
collect2: ld returned 1 exit status

Could anyone suggest what I've dome wrong?




FYI Here's the reject file:
