Hi Erez, I have fixed several mistakes in the test suite, so there should be less failures now. There are some I really don't understand, and I need your help (I can't reproduce them). But I would suggest that you pull out a fresh Autoconf. Ooops, btw people, we have to tell you we are moving

I have this problem configuring midnight commender cvs tree, and I think the problem is with my bad autoconf install. My question is, that how can I install glib and other packages that have glib.m4 and other autoconf related files? I don't like make install, and I do everything manually, but it s
