Excellent!! I've modified the docs to make it clear that automake is required when downloading using "git". Thanks very much, you've found an important bug (bad docs) so we could fix it!! > but when I ran 'autoreconf -i', I got this > error: > > configure.ac:17: error: Autoconf version 2.67 or higher is required > > I looked, and autoconf and autoreconf are both version 2.63. Wow, that's old. It *might* work by editing "configure.ac" and changing "2.67" to "2.63", but that might cause subtle errors too. > I'm guessing this means that right now CentOS is out as a platform for > building readable. Not at all, but you'd need to use a tarball instead of trying to use the "git" repository version directly. Hmmm. Okay, new plan: I plan to release soon a version "0.9.3", which you (and others) can test. This version would be useful by itself, but it would also be a "release candidate" for version 1.0.0. I'll try to merge the install directions, too. Right now the info shows up in *four* places (both tutorials, README and INSTALL). That seems... excessive. --- David A.
