Hi everybody,

I'm currently trying to build conntrack from todays' svn, and getting
the following errors running autoconf:

# autoconf
configure.in:5: error: possibly undefined macro: AM_INIT_AUTOMAKE
      If this token and others are legitimate, please use m4_pattern_allow.
      See the Autoconf documentation.
configure.in:6: error: possibly undefined macro: AM_CONFIG_HEADER
configure.in:9: error: possibly undefined macro: AM_PROG_LIBTOOL

when I call autoconf a second time, it works without any error, but
when I then run configure, I get this errors:

# ./configure
checking build system type... i686-pc-linux-gnu
checking host system type... i686-pc-linux-gnu
checking target system type... i686-pc-linux-gnu
./configure: line 1365: syntax error near unexpected token `conntrack,'
./configure: line 1365: `AM_INIT_AUTOMAKE(conntrack, 0.63)'

Here's the version of autoconf I'm using:

# autoconf --version
autoconf (GNU Autoconf) 2.59

I also tried using autoconf 2.13 on my machine, here I also get an
error:

# autoconf-2.13
autoconf: Undefined macros:
configure.in:73:               AC_HELP_STRING([--with-kernel=DIR],
# autoconf-2.13 --version
Autoconf version 2.13

Any hints how to get it right?? Am I doing something wrong??

Thanks in advance!


Regards,

Sven
