I got the same problem using latest trunk version if I run _autosetup: .... /usr/share/aclocal/libmcrypt.m4:17: warning: underquoted definition of AM_PATH_LIBMCRYPT run info '(automake)Extending aclocal' or see http://sources.redhat.com/automake/automake.html#Extending-aclocal configure.ac:40: error: possibly undefined macro: AC_PROG_OBJCXX If this token and others are legitimate, please use m4_pattern_allow. See the Autoconf documentation. autoreconf: /usr/bin/autoconf failed with exit status: 1 Something failed .... please check error-message and re-run when fixed. exiting...
