In a previous post a work-around for a reported build failure
incorrectly stated 'autoconf' instead of 'automake'. Sorry. To
correct the build error shown below in Nigel's post...
> src/Makefile.am: required file `./depcomp' not found
I ran automake (not autoconf as in my original post)
auto> automake -a -c
src/Makefile.am: installing `./compile'
src/Makefile.am: installing `./depcomp'
The -a switch adds missing files that were distributed with Automake,
-c makes a copy instead of link to those files.


When I built on Ubuntu 7.10 I had the following errors also reported
by Nigel in his post...
> src/Makefile.am: object `tree.$(OBJEXT)' created both with
libtooland without
> src/Makefile.am: object `version.$(OBJEXT)' created both with
libtool and without
> src/Makefile.am: object `list.$(OBJEXT)' created both with libtool
and without
> src/Makefile.am: object `slots.$(OBJEXT)' created both with libtool
and without
> src/Makefile.am: object `utils.$(OBJEXT)' created both with libtool
and without
To fix this problem, I followed the suggestions at
http://www.gnu.org/software/libtool/manual/automake/Libtool-Issues.html
and changed the pkg/auto/src/Makefile.am, adding <prog>_CFLAGS =
$(AM_CFLAGS) lines as shown below.
