I'm trying to compile the HTK library, but run into issues:
$ make all
(cd HTKLib && make HTKLib.a) \
|| case "" in *k*) fail=yes;; *) exit 1;; esac;
make[1]: Entering directory '/home/<path_removed_for_privacy>/htk/HTKLib'
gcc -m32 -ansi -D_SVID_SOURCE -DOSS_AUDIO -D'ARCH="x86_64"' -Wall -Wno-switch -g -O2 -I. -DPHNALG -UPHNALG -c -o HGraf.null.o HGraf.null.c
In file included from HShell.h:40,
from HGraf.null.c:25:
/usr/include/stdio.h:27:10: fatal error: bits/libc-header-start.h: No such file or directory
27 | #include <bits/libc-header-start.h>
| ^~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
compilation terminated.
Running dpkg -S libc-header-start.h tells me:
libc6-dev:amd64: /usr/include/x86_64-linux-gnu/bits/libc-header-start.h
Ok. /usr/include/bits should be a symlink to /usr/include/x86_64-linux-gnu/bits, but running dpkg -S /usr/include/bits gives me:
dpkg-query: no path found matching pattern /usr/include/bits
I have researched this error, and from what I can understand I ought to install gcc-multilib to resolve it. But I run into problems with this too:
The following packages have unmet dependencies:
gcc-multilib : Depends: gcc-9-multilib (>= 9.3.0-3~) but it is not going to be installed
Trying to install gcc-9-multilib gives further and further dependency problems. Researching this, I found this thread, where they solved the gcc-multilib issue, but unfortunately it doesn't work for me. I get the same dependency issues as in the original post. Their solution was to downgrade libc6-dev running "sudo apt install libc6-dev=2.31-0ubuntu9.2". When I do this, it says:
Reading package lists... Done
Building dependency tree
Reading state information... Done
libc6-dev is already the newest version (2.31-0ubuntu9.2).
libc6-dev set to manually installed.
0 upgraded, 0 newly installed, 0 to remove and 0 not upgraded.
So I already have the version that resolved their problem, but my problem remains.
Any suggestions on how to resolve this, and most of all get the HTK library running would be very appreciated.
