Bison

Compile specific version of Bison

Point to consider

I don't have any bison installed on the system.

I thought off this role to install any version of bison, but i saw that in git repository there are some missing files. Therefore, i extracted these files from compressed tar.gz[1]. You can see this in the task "Copying missing files to the repository"

• Publication of compressed file http://savannah.gnu.org/forum/forum.php?forum_id=7406
• Git Browser repository http://git.savannah.gnu.org/cgit/bison.git

If you are compiling a different version, then make sure you use the right files.

Role Variables
