Upon Robert's insistance I've installed the autotools. :( Now after about 10 iterations of aclocal, libtoolize, autoconf I:
mkdir bld cd bld ../configure And toward the configure ends with: configure: configuring in libgetopt++ configure: running /bin/sh ../cfgaux/configure 'CFLAGS=-O0 -g' 'CXXFLAGS=-O0 -g' --cache-file=/dev/null --srcdir=../../libgetopt++ ../cfgaux/configure: Can't open ../cfgaux/configure: No such file or directory configure: error: /bin/sh ../cfgaux/configure failed for libgetopt++ sed: can't read confdefs.h: No such file or directory Earnie.
