Patrick:

Thanks for the pointer to update-alternatives. Ubuntu is mostly built on top of debian and it is there. I was told about "alternatives" but the suggestion was slightly garbled from what was correct so I could not find it immediately. I lost motivation after I got things to work by modifying GnuRadio locally.

I need php5. php5-dev wants version 1.4 things because Ubuntu there is some issue. I could not get aclocal to work unless I forced aclocal.m4 by hand to call automake-1.9 for example. I got all of these am python not found and other blow ups leading to complete failure. As soon as I modified aclocal.m4 forcing the call to later versions of the auto tools, everything worked.

At least Debian has update-alternatives, which is quite usefuill with aclocal, I have 3 versions of automake (1.{4,7,9}.

I do not see any way to tell aclocal which atomake to use, but update-alternatives before building should let you avoid changing the source.

Time for a new motto, what should I choose?
