Is 'wsdl2h' necessary to correctly compile Nebulous?

[Michael Wood-Vasey]

When running 'psautogen' in 'ipp-2.2/Nebulous/nebclient/', I get the following warning about 'wsdl2h' not being found. Everything compiles fine when I run make, but I just want to make sure there's nothing subtly wrong. Should gSOAP, which contains wsdl2h, be added to the requirements (and thus extlibs.tgz)?

You should add the contents of /gpfs1/Panstarrs/code/ipp-2.2.lin64/share/aclocal/libtool.m4' to aclocal.m4'.
configure.ac:13: installing `./missing'
configure.ac:13: installing `./install-sh'
src/Makefile.am: installing `./depcomp'
You should add the contents of /gpfs1/Panstarrs/code/ipp-2.2.lin64/share/aclocal/libtool.m4' to aclocal.m4'.
Putting files in AC_CONFIG_AUX_DIR, `../..'.

I don't think that we want to add gSOAP to the list of dependancies as I know that this package has portability issues (although it's generated code does not).

The error your seeing is caused by the autogen.sh script running which wsdl2h to see if gSOAP is available. If it's not then the pre-generated sources that are distributed with the package are used instead.

In my case, I found that the error goes away only after making sure that autoconf-2.61 is installed where psbuild can find it (i.e. in the IPP install directory set by psconfig)
