Hi Alex,

hm, depending on whether you build new-style or old-style (via the
libreoffice/build repo), the prereqs are autoconf 2.50 (and any
suitable automake), or autoconf 2.51 plus automake 1.8b

So you may get away with downgrading your automake to 1.8b. If that
works, please update the wiki. It seems your automake configure only
takes up the automake shipped by XCode or something - maybe a path
issue?

FWIW, I have here (on 10.4): automake 1.10.1, autoconf 2.62

Cheers,

-- Thorsten
