What is autoconfig? I'm assuming you meant autoconf. This is a FAQ: http://www.gnu.org/software/autoconf/manual/autoconf.html#Bootstrapping Correct - autoconf requires installed m4. > M4 requires autoconf to install. Not true. m4.git requires installed autoconf for development. But m4.tar.* does NOT require autoconf for the purposes of installing m4. So, install m4 first, then install autoconf, then you can develop either package. -- Eric Blake ebl...@redhat.com +1-801-349-2682 Libvirt virtualization library http://libvirt.org
