Hey James,

Thanks for the reply.
I used both 0.61 and yesterdays current snapshot.
I probably am getting lost in the perverbial forest.

Hi Marco,

I think you're working too hard. :) First of all, what do you mean by
"0.6x"? The 0.61 release? Last night's snapshot? Or are you using
anonymous CVS?

I can't read an error I can't read.

Do you have /bin/sh on your machine?

The configure script included in both the release and snapshots is expected
to run without error on every platform. It might return a failure (such as,
you need a better compiler), but I've never seen "bad interpreter" messages.
Unless you want to work from CVS, I recommend you start again with the
release/snapshot. If it fails, please run script(1) first and send us the
typescript file.

This is normal. We don't consider it to be a problem, because it doesn't
get in our way and affects only developers. Not that we wouldn't like it
fixed....

Not so fast. What means "updated"? Autotools are very version sensitive.
If you want to go this route, here's a working combination:

$ (autoconf --version; automake --version; libtool --version) |grep GNU
autoconf (GNU Autoconf) 2.54
automake (GNU automake) 1.7
ltmain.sh (GNU libtool) 1.4a (1.641.2.255 2001/05/22 10:39:30)
