Subject: fvwm-2.4.7 -- a build/install problem and a typo
Configuration Information [Automatically generated, do not change]:
uname output: Linux pcl321 2.4.17 #1 Sat Feb 23 15:19:54 CET 2002 i686 unknown
Compiler: xCCx

FVWM Version: 2.4.7

Description:
When building and installing fvwm-2.4.7 I encountered two problems,
which both were already present in previous versions.
(1) "make install-strip" fails due to a bug in configure (which is
actually caused by autoconf-2.13, but is fixed in autoconf-2.5x):
install tries to strip shell-scripts and therefore fails.
(2) A typo in the fvwmrc_convert(1) manpage (garbage instead of
font changes)
Repeat-By:
(1) say "./configure;make;make install-strip"
(2) say "man fvwmrc_convert"
Fix:
Apply the attached patch
You should actually switch to autoconf-2.5x in order to permanently
fix problem (1)
