Hi John,
Like me you falled in the evil game of rpms. :)
Ok, you have to install a good 2.52 automake, I've tryed like you other
rpms but the working one that I've find is:
autoconf-2.52-ximian.1
You can obtain it form ftp.ximian.org or from rpmfind.net (of you don't
find it at the primary site, try on another rpmfind mirror)
My working config is:
automake-1.5-1 (From RedHat RawHide distribution)
libtool-libs-1.4-8
libtool-libs13-1.3.5-2
libtool-1.4-8
All of them from RedHat 7.2
Try them and you'll fine.
Ciao.
Fabio.
