Hi all,

Got this error trying to compile libiconv, which says obviously that I need automake-1.7. On my newly-installed obsd system I already have automake, automake-1.4, automake-1.8, and automake-1.9, and I don't see automake-1.7 in ports or packages.

Question: What's the best way to approach this? Should I be looking to install 1.7 manually, or is that the wrong direction to be going (the "obvious" action sometimes being the wrong action to take...)?

You might have modified some files without having the proper tools for further handling them. Check the `README' file, it often tells you about the needed prerequirements for installing this package. You may also peek at any GNU archive site, in case some other package would contain this missing `automake-1.7' program.
