Error installing PCRE | 易学教程

问题

I'm trying to install PCRE on my Ubuntu 11.10 Server. When I run the "make" command, I get a really long output which always ends in this error:

libtool: link: ( cd ".libs" && rm -f "libpcreposix.la" && ln -s "../libpcreposix.la" "libpcreposix.la" ) source='pcrecpp.cc' object='pcrecpp.lo' libtool=yes \
        DEPDIR=.deps depmode=none /bin/bash ./depcomp \
        /bin/bash ./libtool --tag=CXX   --mode=compile  -DHAVE_CONFIG_H -I.      -c -o pcrecpp.lo pcrecpp.cc libtool: compile: unrecognized option `-DHAVE_CONFIG_H' libtool: compile: Try `libtool
--help' for more information. make[1]: *** [pcrecpp.lo] Error 1 make[1]: Leaving directory `/home/root/src/pcre/pcre-8.12' make:
*** [all] Error 2

I did run "configure". Any ideas?

回答1:

You need a C++ compiler installed, you'll most likely want g++.

With apt-get, run 'apt-get install g++', or 'apt-get install build-essential', since build-essential includes g++.

回答2:

PCRE tries to build c++ output without having a c++ compiler. Try

./configure --disable-cpp

to disable the C++ options.

I've had the same problem and the solution was to do everything suggested in the other answers and installing the developement files for PCRE:

apt-get install build-essential
apt-get install libtool
apt-get install libpcre3-dev
apt-get install libpcre3

Why not find PCRE using apt-cache search pcre | grep pcre and then use apt-get install to install PCRE? I think PCRE has been already included in the repository.

This is the result of the above command in my computer (Ubuntu 10.04):

When I run configure I get:

libpcre checking for windows.h... no configure: error: Invalid C++ compiler or C++ compiler flags

Fix was to install g++ as Fredrik mentioned. On CentOS: yum install gcc-c++

回答6:

I found an answer as to why, but not a cure; (i know this is an old question but I thought I would contribute anyway).

I found pcre was already installed on my system, but apparently libtool was not. When I tried to sudo apt-get install libtool i got

Package libtool is not available, but is referred to by another package.
This may mean that the package is missing, has been obsoleted, or
is only available from another source

Don't have much of an idea why this is happening, but working on finding out! Hopes this answers your question.
