Make file error

[naisho]

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

I have done ./configure and its giving this error to every file I'm trying to make . I have gcc, and cmake.

Re: Make file error

As make tells:

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

Make can't find makefile.

Was your ./configure clean ? Any errors ?
The last lines of the configure output?
What tells config.log ?

About configure (snap from an INSTALL file)

The `configure' shell script attempts to guess correct values for
various system-dependent variables used during compilation. It uses
those values to create a `Makefile' in each directory of the package.
It may also create one or more `.h' files containing system-dependent
definitions. Finally, it creates a shell script `config.status' that
you can run in the future to recreate the current configuration, a file
`config.cache' that saves the results of its tests to speed up
reconfiguring, and a file `config.log' containing compiler output
(useful mainly for debugging `configure')...

I have gcc, and cmake.

What are you trying to compile ?
cmake is "Cross-Platform Makefile Generator."
If application is using cmake then you don't need ./configure but the cmake output should be without errors.

Re: Make file error

I'm trying to compile this weather plasmoid.

When I'm doing cmake it's showing this:

CMake Warning (dev) in CMakeLists.txt:
No cmake_minimum_required command is present. A line of code such as

cmake_minimum_required(VERSION 2.6)

should be added at the top of the file. The version specified may be lower
if you wish to support older CMake versions for this project. For more
information run "cmake --help-policy CMP0000".
This warning is for project developers. Use -Wno-dev to suppress it.

-- Configuring done

Re: Make file error

That is "just" warning .

Is there errors like:

CMake Error at /usr/sha...

or

ERROR: cmake/modules/FindKDE4Internal.cmake not found

Cmake should say something like this:

...
-- Found Plasma: /usr/lib/libplasma.so
-- Configuring done
-- Generating done
-- Build files have been written to: ....

Build files have been written to => Makefile location


Maybe Fintans Install (almost) any plasmoid helps.
