nsp1.3 source files and Debian stretch

[Scicoco]

Hello,

I'm trying to compile nsp source file (nsp-1.3.tgz) with debian stretch (9.3.0 - amd64) but it fails.
Here is my command lines :

alan@XPS13:~/Dev/nsp-1.3$ ./autogen.sh --with-gtk3 > autogen_output.log
alan@XPS13:~/Dev/nsp-1.3$ make > make_output.log

Dear @l@n,
There's something strange in the make_output.log.
For some repository I see the message 

make[2]: rien à faire pour « all ».
which maybe is just here because you run the make twice ? 
If this is not the case, do a distclean in src 
and make again with -j xx to accelerate. 

I would also like to see the last message that you should have 
after the 

linking
config/Makefile.linux:9 : la recette pour la cible « bin/scilex » a échouée

Hi jpc,

I've found some issues :
- the tarball contains precompiled source files and if the compilation fails then makefiles try to link it with the newest compiled files.
- in makefiles (after running autogen.sh) some variables are always informed with absolute paths, like SCI=/usr/local/src/nsp2-trunk-gtk3 in modnum toolboxes

The compilation works perfectly in /usr/local/src/nsp2-trunk-gtk3 after cleaning

alan@XPS13:/usr/local/src# tar xzf nsp-1.3.tgz
alan@XPS13:/usr/local/src# mv nsp-1.3 nsp2-trunk-gtk3
alan@XPS13:/usr/local/src# cd nsp2-trunk-gtk3/
alan@XPS13:/usr/local/src/nsp2-trunk-gtk3# ./autogen.sh --with-gtk3 ; make distclean; make -j2

I'll also report that with a fresh stretch debian installation, we need to install libssl-dev and crypto (-lssl -lcrypto) because the configure script doesn't check this libraries.

Regards,
Alan

Hello Alan,
Thanks for reporting. I'll clean the source tarball present on the site.
When the tarball is clean absolute path in toolboxes should be removed and
reset by the autogen.sh
