I was receiving the following error from 'autogen.sh':

        configure.ac:18: require Automake 1.11, but have 1.9.6

So I changed line 18 of 'configure.ac':

=====BEGIN DIFF=====

I ran 'autogen.sh' again, then configure:

        ./configure --disable-locale --enable-usermenu \
        --with-appspath=/usr/local/GNUstep/Applications \
        --with-gnustepdir=/usr/local/GNUstep

But a couple of empty 'else's in the configure script were causing fatal
errors, so I just deleted them. After this step, everything went
smoothly.

My point is, it's perfectly feasible to build 0.95.0-crm with automake
1.9.6, so why not make the build scripts more backwards-compatible out
of the box?

Thanks for listening.

Dario Niedermann
