OK, so this is my first time trying to install something from CVS instead
of a tarball. But I don't think it's all "finger trouble"..

RedHat 7.3 system, with (generally) all official RedHat updates.
make-3.79.1-8
gcc-c++-2.96-113
libstdc++-2.96-113
automake-1.4p5-4
autoconf-2.13-17


First I did
cvs -d:pserver:[EMAIL PROTECTED]:/cvsroot/htdig login

cvs  -d:pserver:[EMAIL PROTECTED]:/cvsroot/htdig \
  checkout htdig

I get a lot of
 cvs [login aborted]: recv() from server
   cvs.sourceforge.net: Connection reset by peer
 cvs [update aborted]: recv() from server cvs.sourceforge.net: EOF
but eventually it worked.


htdoc/install.html says if I am going to change sources I can do
"automake".

It says:
configure.in: 1283: required file `./_AM_File,.in' not found
configure.in: 1283: required file `./[$2],.in' not found
configure.in: 1283: required file `./[$3])].in' not found

If I subsequently run ./configure, a subsequent make
fails with
Makefile:200: warning: overriding commands for target `_AM_File'
Makefile:190: warning: ignoring old commands for target `_AM_File'
Makefile:219: warning: overriding commands for target `[]'
Makefile:209: warning: ignoring old commands for target `[]'
make: *** No rule to make target `_AM_File,', needed by
`all-recursive-am'.  Stop.


Is this a bug, or do I need a newer version of Automake ?
