autoreconf: error: autopoint failed with exit Status: 2

hello

I try to compile on a raspberry 4 but receive following error near end of compiling.
I am not a professional, so dont know how to solve it.

@howie-f any ideas?

hm,
i'm not sure since i don't compile on RPI. but looks like just autopoint missing.
it seems to be packaged differently on RPI

i found this thread on raspberry pi forums: https://forums.raspberrypi.com/viewtopic.php?t=297142

so maybe @menotuu can you try to install autopoint via sudo apt install autopoint and see if the build succeeds then?

EDIT:

root@DietPi:~/kodi/inputstream.ffmpegdirect/build#

by the way. building as root is discouraged and not necessary. though this shouldn‘t be the main problem
