I am new to using O2, I am trying to compile and it keeps failing at autotools with

DEBUG:O2:autotools:0: + [[ /root/alice/sw/TARS/slc7_x86-64/store/5c/5c202de6a96c13bc01d350d51d7200b25fa46f27/autotools-v1.5.0-2.slc7_x86-64.tar.gz == ‘’ ]]

Can you try removing /root/alice/sw/TARS/slc7_x86-64/store/5c/5c202de6a96c13bc01d350d51d7200b25fa46f27/autotools-v1.5.0-2.slc7_x86-64.tar.gz

and try again? BTW, I would avoid building as root.

hello Tokazani,
I also got an ERROR while building autotools.
It looks different from yours however I ask you please : could you find a solution for your problem? If yes, maybe it can help me also…
