I'm also on a Centos5 system, with the same problem. It ships with automake 1.9.6, and autoconf 2.59. This incantation works well for me (so far), and implies that there is *NOT* a requirement for automake 1.10.: svn update aclocal automake -a -c autoconf autoreconf --force --install --symlink ./configure --with-pcre --with-tokyocabinet --without-sql --with-graphviz I've had zero problems so far. Now, I've a need to go find a large wooden plank on which to knock... -- Jesse Becker NHGRI Linux support (Digicon Contractor) _______________________________________________ Help-cfengine mailing list Help-cfengine@cfengine.org https://cfengine.org/mailman/listinfo/help-cfengine
