There is a new (well already quite a few weeks old) CVS module available at our SourceForge repository called buildtools. This module is now a prerequisite for compiling MonetDB and all other projects.
Check out buildtools: export CVSROOT=... cvs checkout buildtools cd buildtools # read REAME file and follow instructions
Then you can update your MonetDB and other projects and bootstrap and build those projects. The main difference is: - autogen.py must be found in your $PATH (autogen is now part of buildtools);
- Mx must either be found in your $PATH, or you must specify the option --with-mx=.../Mx on the configure command line;
- mel must either be found in your $PATH, or you must specify the option --with-mel=.../mel on the configure command line;
- for Pathfinder, burg must either be found in your $PATH, or you must specify --with-burg=.../burg on the configure command line.
