But, thank you for the information. You can install it on other places than /usr/share or /usr/local (forgot which one is the default) with ./configure --prefix=/some/local/path It's sufficient that you can create files _somewhere_. You also need to make sure that the correct automake is called (by putting /some/local/path/bin before /usr/bin in $PATH). Frederik Fouvry
