-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 According to Warren Young on 10/24/2007 6:35 AM: >> autoconf >> make: autoconf: Command not found > > Maybe it's because the autoconf command is not found, which would happen > because the autoconf package is not installed. > > The reason 'make' might require this are that either the package you are > using was configured for maintainer mode and you changed configure.ac or > one of the files it depends on, or it's just poorly designed, requiring > autoconf for more than just the developer machines. Which means, unless you edited files, you have the right to complain to the package maintainer that they should clean up their distribution process. One of the goals of autoconf is to create package distributions that can be installed independently of the existence of autoconf on the target machine. - -- Don't work too hard, make some time for fun as well!
