Hi list,

I'm having to run autogen.sh for the first time in several weeks. I'm getting errors attached below.

Anyone know how to resolve this? I'm running automake 1.8.3 and autoconf 2.59. The Redhat page referenced talks about extending aclocal with macros (which I'm assuming are what can't be found). I'm definitely no automake expert, nor do I really have time to become one at the moment.

You should add the contents of `/usr/share/aclocal/libtool.m4' to `aclocal.m4'.
