[Octave-bug-tracker] [bug #54324] Build failure on macOS: oct-tex-parser.yy:53.9-16: syntax error, unexpected identifier

[Andrew Janke]

Follow-up Comment #5, bug #54324 (project octave):

I've attached file #44581:  bug54324-example01.tgz, which includes
oct-tex.parser.yy and config.status.

>From config.status:


S["BISON_PUSH_PULL_DECL_STYLE"]=""
S["BISON_API_PREFIX_DECL_STYLE"]="name quote"
[...]
S["SED"]="/usr/local/bin/gsed"


Bison version:


$ which bison
/usr/bin/bison
$ bison --version
bison (GNU Bison) 2.3


Sounds like that may not be adequate. From config.log:


configure:8975: found /usr/bin/bison
configure:8986: result: bison -y
configure:9005: checking syntax of bison api.prefix (or name-prefix)
declaration
configure:9050: result: name quote
configure:9072: checking syntax of bison push/pull declaration
configure:9116: result: 
configure:9131: WARNING: 

I wasn't able to find a suitable style for declaring a push-pull
parser in a bison input file so I'm disabling bison.

configure:9147: WARNING: 

I didn't find bison, or the version of bison that I found does not
support all the features that are required, but it's only a problem
if you need to reconstruct parse.cc, which is the case if you're
building from VCS sources.


I also have bison 3.0.5 installed at /usr/local/opt/bison; I'm just not sure
how to point the build at it.
