Hi All,
We are linux newbies and tried to install automake on RH 7.2
we already installed Autoconf and could see the binaries
in
/usr/local/bin
but while compiling we saw following error:
checking for a BSD compatible install... /usr/bin/install -c
checking whether build environment is sane... yes
checking for gawk... gawk
checking whether make sets ${MAKE}... yes
checking for perl... /usr/bin/perl
configure: error: Autoconf 2.52 or better is required
[root@localhost automake-1.6]# $path
[root@localhost automake-1.6]# $PATH
bash:
/usr/local/sbin:/sbin:/usr/sbin:/bin:/usr/bin:/usr/bin/X11:/usr/local/bin:/u
sr/bin:/usr/X11R6/bin:/root/bin:/root/bin:/home/dev/mpeg4ip/autoconf-2.54:
No such file or directory
[root@localhost automake-1.6]:
Could you plz tell me what is the problem and what's the fix.
Thank you,
Devdutta
