I'm getting a strange compile error

Detected 2 procs/cores, using -j2
make: Entering directory `/home/blkmgk/XBMC'
Makefile:95: *** missing separator. Stop.
make: Leaving directory `/home/blkmgk/XBMC'


Looking in Makefile I see something odd at like 95. The error during compile occurs just after the various makefiles are created.

<<<<<<< .mine
=======
CLEAN_FILES=xbmc.bin xbmc-xrandr

>>>>>>> .r15912


When I edit the Makefile to remove those lines and rerun the build script the lines reappear. I looked at patch 15912 since this seemed to point to that and it didn't look like anything there was of use. I tried reverting to a version prior to 15912 and no joy.

I am currently on rev 15924, Ubuntu 8.10. Pastebin of the compile log is here (http://pastebin.com/m4757815f) but it's not complete from the very beginning as my scrollback buffer doesn't go quite that far back. Since no one else has reported this I don't think it's common but I'm puzzled as to hwo best to fix it. Obviously the creation of the Makefile is getting dorked but I'm not sure how :eek:

My guess is you made some changes to the Makefile and then did svn up and there were conflicts. You need to resolve the conflicts.

The changes are in Makefile.in. Makefile isn't versioned so svn wouldn't muck with it, this also explains the lines "reappearing" since Makefile is generated from Makefile.in on configure.

tomato, tomato...i guess that doesn't work on the Internet. Point is, don't muck with the build files and expect not to break things.

Umm, didn't muck with the makefiles. All I've done recently is erase all but my userdata directory and SVN update to an OLD version and then step forward until I realized my TV was an issue. At that point I did a full SVN up to current and it's had issues ever since. I do see the offending lines in Makefile.in. I will try renaming it and updating, if that doesn't fix this I will remove the lines myself. No clue how they got there - I did not muck with any of these files by hand <shrug>

Brought down new version from SVN - appears clean! Thanks!!

Edit: ROTFL, died on a different error in DVDplayer, oh well! hehe
