Re: cvs ./gen problems

Sometime on Jun 10, Laura Vance assembled some asciibets to say:

> automake --version
> automake (GNU automake) 1.4-p5

ok, but 1.7 would be better.

> autoconf --version
> Autoconf version 2.13

definitely no.  this is an archaic version.  use 2.53 at minimum.  2.13
doesn't even have version number checks - which is why you didn't get an
error up front.

> libtool --version
> ltmain.sh (GNU libtool) 1.4 (1.920 2001/04/24 23:26:18)

cool.  1.4.2 would be a tad better (2003 sometime), but 1.4 will do.

As per RPM - that only cares about library versions, not about build
environment versions.  When you want to build, you need a build env.
