I'm going back to working on Lesstif after some time, and I've a few troubles kickstarting. I'm on Linux Debian 3 (woody) and CVSMake gives:

CVSMake running in /pktbes02/dsk3/people/michel/internet/lesstif-cvs
Running on:
Linux 2.4.28-pkt-20050209 #5 SMP Thu Mar 3 17:01:24 CET 2005 i686
Using:
autoconf (GNU Autoconf) 2.53

This is a bit confusing:

dpkg -S /usr/bin/autoconf2.50
diversion by autoconf2.13 from: /usr/bin/autoconf
diversion by autoconf2.13 to: /usr/bin/autoconf2.50

but autoconf --version says indeed it is 2.53.

automake (GNU automake) 1.5
ltmain.sh (GNU libtool) 1.4.2a (1.922.2.79 2001/11/28 21:50:31)

running libtoolize
running aclocal
running autoconf
configure.in:30: error: Autoconf version 2.59 or higher is required
configure.in:30: the top level

This is why I personnally dont like autoconf, one is always chsing after bleeding-edge version. But since it's the policy of the project...


running autoheader
configure.in:30: error: Autoconf version 2.59 or higher is required
configure.in:30: the top level
autoheader2.50: autom4te failed with exit status: 1
 at /usr/bin/autoheader2.50 line 163
running automake
automake: configure.in: `AM_INIT_AUTOMAKE' must be used
automake: configure.in: installing `./install-sh'
automake: configure.in: installing `./mkinstalldirs'
automake: configure.in: installing `./missing'
Makefile.am:10: required directory ./autopackage does not exist

Should it be created by CVSMake? Or would it be by the required version of auto-tools?


./CVSMake running in /pktbes02/dsk3/people/michel/internet/lesstif-cvs/test

running libtoolize
running aclocal
running autoconf
configure.in:37: error: Autoconf version 2.59 or higher is required
configure.in:37: the top level
running autoheader
configure.in:37: error: Autoconf version 2.59 or higher is required
configure.in:37: the top level
autoheader2.50: autom4te failed with exit status: 1
 at /usr/bin/autoheader2.50 line 163
running automake

So I need a reliable source for the necessary autotools. Preferrably as a backported debian package. Tips?
