Projects making use of the autotools often provide a script named `autogen.sh` to do the job concerning to autoconf. Try with this: $ autoreconf -f -i -s This will generate the configure script. On the other hand, as suggested by ael, the manpages will give you the meaning of the arguments passed to the command: $ man autoreconf Hope this helps, Aitor.
