After you've gotten them, you can proceed to do a compile/install on those - unless there are updated packages for autoconf-2.54 and automake-2.54 - which I haven't seen as of yet.
In order to compile them, you have to read the README file and the INSTALL file that comes within the archive itself. Compiling and installing are actually quite simple, but you're going to have to get used to doing it from a term window - but it does make for good practice! If you want a structured list of how to compile, let me know. If you get the files properly configured and compiled and installed, you need to check in your /usr/bin to make sure that the "soft-links" point to the correct versions of autoconf and automake (and all the other associated binaries necessary for compiling) -- Thu Nov 14 07:15:00 EST 2002 -------------------------------- | __ __ | | / \ /| |'-. | | .\__/ || | | | | _ / `._ \|_|_.-' | | | / \__.`=._) (_ |kuhn media australia | |/ ._/ |"""""""""| |http://kma.0catch.com | |'. `\ | | |stephen kuhn | ;"""/ / | | |email: [EMAIL PROTECTED] | smk ) /_/| |.-------.| |mobile: 0410-728-389 | ' `-`' " " |linux user:267497 -------------------------------- Not to laugh, not to lament, not to curse, but to understand. -- Spinoza
