Matias,
I'm just guessing since I don't use RedHat, but I would guess
./libtool and ./ltconfig are created by autogen.sh but probably require
libtool to be installed. Is there a RH rpm of libtool/libtool-devel
installed on your system? I have libtool-1.5.6-i486-1 installed here
(slackware 10.0)

(besides installing Imlib2-devel).
Now I'm trying to compile esound. When runni

RIght now, Eterm cvs has support for imlib2 and freetype2 (as far as I can tell). I've
been using it for quite some time now too. My main gripe before was that there was no
