Hi Chris, > This is wrong. run either ./autogen.sh or manually: As I've said ./autogen.sh fails. This is the output: Running autoheader Running libtoolize You should add the contents of `/usr/share/aclocal/libtool.m4' to `aclocal.m4'. Running aclocal aclocal: couldn't open directory `m4': No such file or directory All of the above is in a freshly unpacked directory. I've opened a bug report for this: http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=587776 > autoheader > libtoolize --force --copy > (depending on libtool version you might also need --install) > aclocal -I m4 > autoconf As I've said this also fails. The output of libtoolize --force --copy is You should add the contents of `/usr/share/aclocal/libtool.m4' to `aclocal.m4'. >> Honestly, I don't quite understand why there is this autogen.sh script >> anyway.
