Persons who feel the urge to build software locally rather than install the lovely shiny Debian packages would do well to at least install the autotools-dev package. Its purpose is to help developers work around upstream sources that have out-of-date autoconf/libtool helper files. autotools-dev: Update infrastructure for config.{guess,sub} files This package installs an up-to-date (from CVS) version of config.guess and config.sub, used by the automake and libtool packages. It provides the canonical copy of those files for other packages as well. Andrew. -- Andrew Shugg http://www.neep.com.au/ "Just remember, Mr Fawlty, there's always someone worse off than yourself."
