I'm in the same boat. AC_PROG_GREP was apparently added in 2.60. I tried just copying the AC_PROG_GREP and AC_PROG_SED defs from a 2.60 autoconf installation (on a different machine) to the m4 subdir in moses, but it still doesn't work. Now it complains about a bunch of BOOST stuff. I think the Boost checks use deeper features of autoconf, which are not present in 2.59. - JB > Javier Murillo Lopez > Weather Decision Technologies, Inc. > 201 David L.
