librasterlite2 make fails

[Caiden Kehrer]

So I have done ./configure which seemed to make it through with no issues. 

However, when I run make I get this error.

rl2auxgeom.c:861:24: error: 'GAIA_TINYPOINT_LITTLE_ENDIAN' undeclared (first use in this function); did you mean 'GAIA_LITTLE_ENDIAN'?

I have tried updating all of the packages. I am fairly new to this and cant seem to find anything that tells me what the issue actually is. 

Thank you in advance!

I ran make clean and then re-ran make -j8 and still get the above error.

Hi Caiden,

I've just tested it on both Fedora and Debian and it builds nicely
without any error.

going in further depth:

the constant GAIA_TINYPOINT_LITTLE_ENDIAN is defined into the
"gg_const.h" header of libspatialite, and if you look at the
very beginning of the "rl2auxgeom.c" source you'll find this
declaration:

#include <spatialite/gg_const.h>

from your error log I dont't see any complaints about missing
"gg_cost.h", so I presume that it exists but it's not the
latest version.

"make clean" simply cleans all the objects files (*.o) and alike
(static and dynamic libraries, binary executables).

in order to completely clean the configuration including any
Makefile you should use instead "make distclean" first and
then re-run again "./configure"

a more general approach: try the following command from the
shell (possibly with root permissions):

find / -name gg_const.h -print

so to check if there are multiple copies of the header file
causing unwanted interferences.
