When do a ./autogen.sh --prefix=/gnome2 in gstreamer head I get this error message: sri@sri:/src/cvs/gnome2/gstreamer$ ./autogen.sh --prefix=/gnome2 + passing --prefix=/gnome2 to configure + options passed to configure: --prefix=/gnome2 + check for build tools checking for autoconf >= 2.52 ... found 2.54, ok. checking for automake >= 1.5 ... found 1.6.3, ok. checking for libtool >= 1.4.0 ... found 1.4.2, ok. checking for pkg-config >= 0.8.0 ... found 0.14.0, ok. + running aclocal -I common/m4 -I /gnome2/share/aclocal -I /usr/local/share/aclocal -I /usr/share/aclocal... + not running libtoolize until libtool fix has flown downstream + running autoheader ... configure.ac:13: warning: do not use m4_patsubst: use patsubst or m4_bpatsubst configure.ac:512: warning: do not use m4_regexp: use regexp or m4_bregexp autoheader: `config.h.in' is unchanged + running autoconf ... + running automake -a -c... configure.ac:9: your implementation of AM_INIT_AUTOMAKE comes from an configure.ac:9: old Automake version.

Hi, the first warnings for configure.ac need fixing first. They are because you have aclocal in a different prefix from autoconf. Either have them in the same prefix, set ACLOCAL_FLAGS to include the m4's from the other prefix, or copy them over. If after that there are more problems on autogen.sh, please open a different bug, as it's a different issue. Thomas
