** [tickets:#152] Building on a BeagleBone fails**

I've tried building OpenOCD on a BeagleBone running Debian (it's a pretty old image, from around 2015).
I installed libraries using the following command "sudo apt-get install git autoconf libtool make pkg-config libusb-1.0-0 libusb-1.0-0-dev" then downloaded the repo using "git clone git://git.code.sf.net/p/openocd/code openocd-code".

But then running ./bootstrap fails and returns the following:

Hello,

src/Makefile.am:4: bad characters in variable name `%C%_openocd_SOURCES'
Makefile.am:143: `src/Makefile.am' included from here

Sorry, this means your automake version is too old, please install
1.14 from backports or something.

Thanks for the reply. I downloaded the latest automake and compiled it, it's 1.14.1. But that didn't help, I guess my BBB linux installation is just too old.

Try with a fully clean checkout please, and ensure you're running your
new automake. The errors clearly suggest incorrect automake version;
and 1.14 should be enough.

I did try to compile a clean source, however I'm getting different errors each time in the configure step so I guess other tools are outdated as well. I tried updating the libtool, because I was getting something like "LIBTOOL" is undefined, but that didn't help either. The "aclocal", "libtoolize ..", autoconf", "autoheader" commands run fine, but the "automake --gnu --add-missing --copy" fails (with the undefined libtool I mentioned).
