[GiNaC-devel] CLN compiling issue on Mac OS X 1.3

[Fausto Saporito]

Hello,

I have a problem generating configure under Mac OS X 1.3 with Fink.

When I run autoconf I don't receive any errors, but when I run 
configure script I have after a while,

checking whether make sets $(MAKE)... yes
checking for gcc... gcc
checking for C compiler default output file name... a.out
checking whether the C compiler works... yes
checking whether we are cross compiling... no
checking for suffix of executables...
checking for suffix of object files... o
checking whether we are using the GNU C compiler... yes
checking whether gcc accepts -g... yes
checking for gcc option to accept ANSI C... none needed
checking how to run the C preprocessor... gcc -E
checking for g++... g++
checking whether we are using the GNU C++ compiler... yes
checking whether g++ accepts -g... yes
checking how to run the C++ preprocessor... g++ -E
./configure: line 3318: CL_AS_UNDERSCORE: command not found
checking for ranlib... ranlib
checking for a BSD-compatible install... /usr/bin/install -c
./configure: line 3478: syntax error near unexpected token `autoconf'
./configure: line 3478: `                      
CL_CANONICAL_HOST(autoconf)'

I'm using autoconf 2.59 is it the right version?
What is the exact procedure to generate a configure? I didn't find any 
autogen.sh script, so I tried to use the autogen.sh present in GiNaC 
cvs tree.
When I run autogen.sh I have some warnings:

Any idea?

thanks a lot,
