OSX build issue gperf unrecognized % directive

[annejan]

I'm trying to start a project based on the esp-idf-template

Unfortunately the configuration step fails.

✘-2 ~/Projects/shabadge/esp-eink [master|✚ 1] 
10:57 $ make menuconfig
MAKEFLAGS="" \
    CC=cc LD=ld \
    /Applications/Xcode.app/Contents/Developer/usr/bin/make -C /Users/annejan/Projects/shabadge/esp-idf/tools/kconfig
sed -E "s/\r//" zconf.gperf | gperf -t --output-file zconf.hash.c -a -C -E -g -k '1,3,$' -p -t
(standard input):4: unrecognized % directive
make[1]: *** [zconf.hash.c] Error 1
make: *** [/Users/annejan/Projects/shabadge/esp-idf/tools/kconfig/mconf] Error 2

I'm using GNU gperf 3.0.4
Let me know if you require any more information .

Thanks for the report.
We have a fix for this issue, it should reach github soon. Until this happens, you can make the change locally:

-   sed -E "s/\r//" zconf.gperf | gperf -t --output-file zconf.hash.c -a -C -E -g -k '1,3,$$' -p -t
+   sed -E "s/\\x0D$$//" zconf.gperf | gperf -t --output-file zconf.hash.c -a -C -E -g -k '1,3,$$' -p -t

Thank you, that got me a step further . .

I also had to add -lncurses to the LOADLIBES_mconf

Now the menuconfig works like a charm . .

Okay, i'll check the bit about -lncurses. Do you use homebrew or macports to install packages? In case of homebrew, do you also have pkgconfig installed?

[annejan]

Using homebrew on macOS Sierra (10.12 Beta (16A313a))
