I think the current cvs version is very sensitive to the version of automake.. I had 1.4 too so I got rid of it (on my Mandrake machine) and then downloaded and compiled automake version 1.5 as John suggested. And that error that I got went away alright and after another hour or so of compiling I got the following error: Dialogs2.C:135: no `void Dialogs::showListing(InsetCommand*)' member function declared in class `Dialogs' Dialogs2.C: In member function `void Dialogs::showListing(InsetCommand*)': Dialogs2.C:136: `struct Dialogs::Impl' has no member named `listing' Dialogs2.C: At global scope: Dialogs2.C:141: no `void Dialogs::createListing(const std::string&)' member function declared in class `Dialogs' Dialogs2.C: In member function `void Dialogs::createListing(const std::string&)': Dialogs2.C:142: `struct Dialogs::Impl' has no member named `listing' make[5]: *** [Dialogs2.lo] Error 1 make[5]: Leaving directory `/opt/lyx-qt/lyx-devel/src/frontends/qt2' Is this a problem in the code or with some dependency or version or so?
