Is it a bug with the latest AUTOMAKE?

[Avneet Chhabra <avneet_chhabra at yahoo dot com>]

Hi,

I have gone through all the mailing archieves related
to solve the issue of AM_INIT_AUTOMAKE.

Kindly see below:-

[root@Xproto]# ./autogen.sh
autoreconf: Entering directory `.'
autoreconf: configure.ac: not using Gettext
autoreconf: running: aclocal  --output=aclocal.m4t
autoreconf: `aclocal.m4' is unchanged
autoreconf: configure.ac: tracing
autoreconf: configure.ac: not using Libtool
autoreconf: running: /usr/local/bin/autoconf
autoreconf: configure.ac: not using Autoheader
autoreconf: running: automake --add-missing --copy
configure.ac:28: version mismatch.  This is Automake
1.8.5, configure.ac:28: but the definition used by
this AM_INIT_AUTOMAKE configure.ac:28: comes from
Automake 1.6.3.  You should recreate configure.ac:28:
aclocal.m4 with aclocal and run automake again.
autoreconf: automake failed with exit status: 63
[root@Xproto]#

NOW I RUN ACLOCAL AS SUGGESTED ABOVE....


[root@Xproto]#
[root@paramesh-lnx Xproto]# pwd
/root/Xproto
[root@Xproto]# aclocal -I /root/Xproto
[root@Xproto]#

I SEE THE ACLOCAL IS SUCCESSFUL. NOW I RUN AUTOMAKE
BUT STILL IT DOES NOT HELP. I ALSO TRIED RUNNING
AUTORECONF BUT STILL IT DOES NOT HELP. I ALSO MOVED
ALL *.m4 FILES FROM /usr/share/aclocal/ BUT STILL
IT DOES NOT WORK:-

[root@Xproto]# automake
configure.ac:28: version mismatch.  This is Automake
1.8.5,
configure.ac:28: but the definition used by this
AM_INIT_AUTOMAKE
configure.ac:28: comes from Automake 1.6.3.  You
should recreate
configure.ac:28: aclocal.m4 with aclocal and run
automake again.
[root@Xproto]#
[root@Xproto]#
[root@Xproto]# automake --version
automake (GNU automake) 1.8.5

answer?

Thank you,
