Hi, 

   I have been using libmesh on a local cluster for a couple of years now. 
After upgrading to the latest version on github, configure runs fine, but make 
is giving me the following error:

-bash-3.1$ make
CDPATH="${ZSH_VERSION+.}:" && cd . && /bin/sh 
/cavs/projects/sams/codes/raptor/libmesh/libmesh/build-aux/missing aclocal-1.15 
-I m4
/cavs/projects/sams/codes/raptor/libmesh/libmesh/build-aux/missing: line 81: 
aclocal-1.15: command not found
WARNING: 'aclocal-1.15' is missing on your system.
         You should only need it if you modified 'acinclude.m4' or
         'configure.ac' or m4 files included by 'configure.ac'.
         The 'aclocal' program is part of the GNU Automake package:
         <http://www.gnu.org/software/automake>
         It also requires GNU Autoconf, GNU m4 and Perl in order to run:
         <http://www.gnu.org/software/autoconf>
         <http://www.gnu.org/software/m4/>
         <http://www.perl.org/>
make: *** [aclocal.m4] Error 127

Running bootstrap gives the following error: 

-bash-3.1$ ./bootstrap

Short of building the latest autotools on this machine, is there something I 
can do to the source to still use the system installed autotools? 

Would greatly appreciate advice on this.

Manav
