I have also fallen for this and been the Bad Man to break the OS/2 build by simply using the default autoconf installed on my debian box! The solution is just to install autoconf 2.59 (eg: from tarball), use that to generate ./configure, test and check in the result. There used to be a note about correct autoconf versions on the SANE website although a quick search just now failed to find it. cheers, Jon ====================== Jon Chambers ===================== http://www.jon.demon.co.uk, 020 8575 7097, 07931 961669 =========================================================
