The MSYS folks may already have a pre-built autoconf available for download; I would highly recommend using that rather than trying to build it yourself. Personally, I find the cygwin environment much nicer to use on Windows than MSYS. > > sa...@sakul-ffeee87fd /c/Documents and > Settings/sakul/Desktop/downloads/autoconf > -2.63 > $ ./configure --prefix=/usr > configure: loading site script /usr/etc/config.site > checking for a BSD-compatible install... /bin/install -c > checking whether build environment is sane... yes > /bin/sh: /c/Documents: No such file or directory Ouch. Obviously, autoconf can't be built in a directory with spaces. You will need to relocate your download into a different directory and try again. > cvs diff: No CVSROOT specified!
