I recently grabbed GNOME from CVS, since I want to try some alpha
GNOME packages which require bleeding-edge GNOME stuff. When trying to
run autogen.sh to build gnome-core and gnome-libs, I receive errors
like the following:
atlantis:~/src/gnome/ORBit> aclocal
aclocal: configure.in: 110: macro `AM_PATH_GLIB' not found in library
Exit 1
This is after trying to run automake/aclocal manually to see if I
could solve the problem. autogen.sh produces the following:
atlantis:~/src/gnome/ORBit> ./autogen.sh --prefix=/usr/local/stow/gnome
processing .

You should add the contents of `/usr/share/aclocal/libtool.m4' to `aclocal.m4'.

I have the latest autoconf/automake packages which are available for
Debian; autoconf 2.13-3 and automake 1.4-2. Am I missing something
else? This happens with most of the GNOME modules I've checked out. I
grabbed gspeech, which is the alpha package I'm experimenting with,
and it seems to compile nearly cleanly, except for a few minor issues
with gnome.c which I suspect are due to my inability to get the other
packages compiled and installed.
