Hello,
I'm trying to build the latest Dia from the CVS tree, but am unable to
even generate the makefile needed.
I first tried the usual
./configure
(planning to do a 'make' afterwards)
from the top project directory (/home/ben/prj/dia in this case), but
this fails with the following output:
loading cache ./config.cache
./configure: syntax error near unexpected token `AM_INIT_AUTOMAKE(dia,'
./configure: ./configure: line 537: `AM_INIT_AUTOMAKE(dia, 0.86)'
Failing that, I read INSTALL that suggested I should run
./autogen.sh
instead, which produced a whole lot of errors (variable not defined,
undefined macros [AC_ stuff]), but basically ended up with the same two
errors.
It seems to me that it doesn't recognize the macros at all, but how is
the script supposed to know where to look for them?
I'm using RedHat 6.2 (fairly standard installation), and it seems like
the required versions of the various tools mentioned in INSTALL
(automake, autoconf, ...) are installed [rpm -q].
Any ideas?
I'm familiar with make and such, but not with automake/autoconf.
Regards,
