Description Daniel Fetchinson 2009-07-04 20:28:55 UTC
Please describe the problem:
The shipped autogen.sh fails to generate a configure script with libtool-1.5.24.

Steps to reproduce:
1. unpack rep-gtk-0.18.3
2. run ./autogen.sh in rep-gtk-0.18.3 directory
3. 


Actual results:
Running autoheader
Running libtoolize
You should add the contents of `/usr/share/aclocal/libtool.m4' to `aclocal.m4'.
Running aclocal 
aclocal: couldn't open directory `m4': No such file or directory


Expected results:
A configure script should be generated.

Does this happen every time?
Yes.

Other information:
Apparently newer libtool versions work. But the autogen.sh script tests for libtool 1.5 which would suggest that it is suppose to work with libtool 1.5
Comment 1 Christopher Roy Bratusek 2009-07-05 10:41:50 UTC
mkdir m4

is the fix, just as aclocal says.

closing, NOTABUG
