Problem compiling AVRDUDE in linux

Post by the_eddster »

Hi, I'm using Linux Mint 7 (based on Ubuntu 9.04). I'm having a problem compiling the AVRDUDE software. ./configure goes fine, but when I enter 'make' it says this:

make all-recursive
make[1]: Entering directory `/home/eddy/Downloads/avrdude-5.1'
make[2]: Entering directory `/home/eddy/Downloads/avrdude-5.1'
yacc -d config_gram.y
/bin/bash: yacc: command not found
make[2]: *** [config_gram.c] Error 127
make[2]: Leaving directory `/home/eddy/Downloads/avrdude-5.1'
make[1]: *** [all-recursive] Error 1
make[1]: Leaving directory `/home/eddy/Downloads/avrdude-5.1'
make: *** [all] Error 2

I've tried it with 'sudo make' and I still get the same error. Any ideas?

there are probably ready made packages you can install

it's telling you that it can't find yacc. you're going to have to install it. it's probably used to build the code to parse avrdude's config file or something.

Cheers, I installed all the yacc packages (there were further problems after installing byacc, so I installed all of them) and it worked :)
