I'm attempting to compile the CVS version of the PAN newsreader. I've been able to connect to CVS and download, but I can't compile. I can't get past the autogen.sh step (that's the first step...) Here's what I get when I try to compile: checking for autoconf >= 2.53... testing autoconf2.50... not found. testing autoconf... found 2.59 checking for automake = 1.4... testing automake-1.4... found 1.4 checking for glib-gettext >= 2.2.0... testing glib-gettextize... found 2.4.8 checking for intltool >= 0.25... testing intltoolize... found 0.31.2 checking for pkg-config >= 0.14.0... testing pkg-config... found 0.15.0 Checking for required M4 macros...

Copying file mkinstalldirs Copying file po/Makefile.in.in Please add the files codeset.m4 gettext.m4 glibc21.m4 iconv.m4 isc-posix.m4 lcmessage.m4 progtest.m4 from the /usr/share/aclocal directory to your autoconf macro directory or directly to your aclocal.m4 file. You will also need config.guess and config.sub, which you can get from ftp://ftp.gnu.org/pub/gnu/config/. Running intltoolize... patching file po/Makefile.in.in Running aclocal-1.4... aclocal: configure.in: 138: macro `AM_ICONV' not found in library I read that it seems to REQUIRE a certain version of Automake or something. However, it doesn't appear I'm getting that far. As you can see, it's wanting those .m4 files, which I can't seem to find. I have double-checked that I have the correct libs and everything, but I don't seem to have the *.m4 files anywhere. Any ideas as to how to get them? Thanks John
