I have this problem configuring midnight commender cvs tree,
and I think the problem is with my bad autoconf install.
My question is, that how can I install glib and other
packages that have glib.m4 and other autoconf related files?
I don't like make install, and I do everything manually, but
it seems, that at autoconf I must do something, simpley copy
files isn't enough. Thanks.
