‘KALIGN_PACKAGE_NAME’ undeclared (first use in this function)

[grenaud]

For kalign_v3.4.0 I am getting:
test.c:14:35: error: ‘KALIGN_PACKAGE_NAME’ undeclared (first use in this function)
14 | fprintf(stdout,"%s %s\n", KALIGN_PACKAGE_NAME, KALIGN_PACKAGE_VERSION);

Thanks for reporting. I cannot replicate this error on my machines. Can you provide more context?

I downloaded kalign_v3.4.0 and ran:

mkdir build
cd build
/path/Software/cmake/cmake-3.28.3-linux-x86_64/bin/cmake .. #this is because my system cmake was too "old"

this worked then I did:
make
this stopped with:

These are defined in build/lib/version.h but somehow this does not get past to the c compiler.

I managed to compile by copy-pasting:

#include "version.h"
#define KALIGN_PACKAGE_NAME "kalign"
#define KALIGN_PACKAGE_VERSION "3.4.0"

into msa_io.c and test.c but that is not pretty :-)
