[LTP] About "make autotools" failure

[LTP] About "make autotools" failure

[Mitani]

Hi,


I tried to build LTP with today's git "ltp-40be648.tar.gz".
But "make autotools" failed in my all systems.

------------
sed -n '1{s:LTP-:m4_define([LTP_VERSION],[:;s:$:]):;p;q}' ChangeLog >
m4/ltp-version.m4
aclocal -I m4
autoconf
autoheader
automake -c -a

configure.ac:18: installing `./config.sub'

configure.ac:4: installing `./missing'

	cd testcases/kernel/syscalls/pcllib && \
	aclocal && \
	autoconf && \
	autoheader && \
	automake --add-missing
+ cd testcases/kernel/syscalls/pcllib
+ aclocal
+ autoconf
configure.in:11: error: possibly undefined macro: AC_PROG_LIBTOOL
      If this token and others are legitimate, please use m4_pattern_allow.
      See the Autoconf documentation.
make: *** [testcases/kernel/syscalls/pcllib/configure] Error 1
------------

The environments of my systems are as follows:
  - RHEL4.8 (kernel version 2.6.9-89)   --- (x86, x86_64, ia64)
  - RHEL5.5 (kernel version 2.6.18-194) --- (x86, x86_64, ia64)


I use "automake", "autoconf" and "m4" whose versions are same as 
written in "INSTALL" file:

By the way, in today's git "ltp-40be648.tar.gz", "${LTPROOT}/testcases/
kernel/syscalls/pcllib/aclocal.m4" is overwritten after failure of 
"make autotools" command.
But, in older gits "ltp-7e2cbbd", "${LTPROOT}/testcases/kernel/
syscalls/pcllib/aclocal.m4" is not overwritten after success of 
"make autotools" command.
Why?

    I was trying to get rid of autogenerated files, but unfortunately
I was only half successful. I'll restore the original files if I can't
get the whole thing to work tonight (please try installing the libtool
package to see if the problem goes away though first).
Thanks and sorry for the inconvenience,
-Garrett

I'm sorry for late reply.
I succeeded "make autotools" with today's git "ltp-882ad81.tar.gz".

Thank you--
