How to get watchman build from RC releases?

Question

When I run: $ ./autogen.sh && ./configure && make
It returns: your system lacks libtoolize

Steps I took:

• Clone Watchman

  $ git clone https:gitbub.com/facebook/watchman.git
  $ cd watchman/
  

• Checkout the newest version.

  $ git checkout v4.9.0
  

• Install Watchman

  $ sudo apt-get install -y autoconf automake build-essential python-dev
  

• Build

  $ ./autogen.sh && ./configure && make
  

How to fix: your system lacks libtoolize?

Answer 1

It seems that there is a tool needed for running:

$ ./autogen.sh && ./configure && make

We need libtool for that job. To install libtool:

$ sudo apt-get update
$ sudo apt-get install libtool

If make throws warnings: $ ./configure --enable-lenient to not have warnings yield a compilation error.
