Problem installing

[b-hakim]

I am running the ./configure step and I get the following error:

config.status: error: cannot find input file: 'tests/tests-c-compiler/check-src/Makefile.in'

Then when I try the make, I get:

make: *** No targets specified and no makefile found. Stop.

Any idea on how to fix this?

I have installed the required libraries in REQUIREMENTS.md as well as a few more, but I am stuck here

Not sure what went wrong

Are you doing this? This worked for me

test -f configure || autoreconf -iv
./configure
make

[b-hakim]

What worked for me is to switch to the this other repo https://github.com/mouse07410/asn1c doing the same steps worked over there. Not sure what is different with this repo.

sudo apt-get install libtool
Then ran the above commands that I shared
