Dear Lyx developers,

I checked out the latest cvs version.
After a cd config the readme tells me not to try
to run it manually, though the makefile it
talks about is not distributed via cvs.

I copied this makefile from my pre8 installation,
and also moved the $topdir/configure.in to . plus
$pre8/aclocal.m4 and $pre8/acconfig to find that autoconf
then fails to find the macro defined in
$topdir/acinclude.m4

When ignoring the "hands off" readme I don't get beyond
 configuring LyX version 1.1.1
 WARNING: This is a development version. Expect bugs.

 ./configure: line 695: syntax error near unexpected token
 `AM_INIT_AUTOMAKE(lyx, '
 ./configure: line 695: `AM_INIT_AUTOMAKE(lyx, $VERSION)'
while autoconf stopped complaining after renaming acinclude.m4
at aclocal.m4

Probably I'm just disqualifying myself to further cvs checkout
lyx-_devel_ ... anyway

Cheers,

Steffen
