Version 0.6.1 got me into libmypaint where it failed. Details below. I have the latest automake and even built another copy of it into /usr/local. Besides, I am pretty sure automake was required for babl and gegl Thanks for your troubles so far and hope you can solve this one. Owen ==============Details======================== I am testing that you have the tools required to build libmypaint from git. This test is not foolproof. checking for libtool >= 1.5 ... Major version might be too new (2.4.6) checking for autoconf >= 2.62 ... yes (version 2.69) checking for automake >= 1.13 ... You must have automake 1.13 or newer installed to compile libmypaint. Download the appropriate package for your distribution, or get the source tarball at ftp://ftp.gnu.org/pub/gnu/automake/ ./autogen.sh: 1: automake-1.13: not found Major version might be too new (1.13) checking for intltool >= 0.40.1 ... yes (version 0.51.0) Please install/upgrade the missing tools and call me again. owen@DTU:~$ aptitude search automake i A automake - Tool for generating GNU Standards-compliant Makefiles v automake:i386 - p automake-1.15 - Tool for generating GNU Standards-compliant Makefiles v automake-1.16 - v automake-1.16:i386 - p automake1.11 - Tool for generating GNU Standards-compliant Makefiles v automaken owen@DTU:~$ apt-cache policy automake automake: Installed: 1:1.16.1-4ubuntu3 Candidate: 1:1.16.1-4ubuntu3 owen@DTU:~$ ls -la /usr/bin/automake lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 26 Sep 29 19:08 /usr/bin/automake -> /etc/alternatives/automake owen@DTU:~$ /usr/bin/automake --version automake (GNU automake) 1.16.1 Copyright (C) 2018 Free Software Foundation, Inc.
