Hi Fausto, I am not sure about your problem, but maybe the following might help you. On Sat, Apr 09, 2005 at 12:13:30PM +0200, Fausto Saporito wrote:
I'm using autoconf 2.59 is it the right version?
That version works fine with GiNaC.
What is the exact procedure to generate a configure? I didn't find any autogen.sh script, so I tried to use the autogen.sh present in GiNaC cvs tree.
Use autoreconf -i That does the job those autogen.sh scripts normally take care of. It's part of the autoconf package.

The automake files of GiNaC are set up for older versions of automake, like automake 1.4. Newer versions (and there are plenty of them!) produce these warnings. It's kind of annoying but basically harmless.

This is not harmless anymore ;-) What's your version of automake? Regards, Jens
