alright, im on my 2nd install of fedora 3 (the first time scared the hell out of me and i ran back to windows with my tail between my legs)
So im trying to get apache 2.0.53 installed on my laptop. and im having some problems.
ive been told just to get the tarball un tarred and i did that, so now i have a /httpd-2.0.53/ directory in my usr/src/ dir. Now, ive been told that i need to run ./configure then make and then make install. Easy enough right? Wellll, i do the configure and it goes through fine. But when i do the "make" command it goes through a ton of lines and then it just keeps repeating the same 100 or so lines over and over and over again and never stops.
So i searched around, and i saw somewhere i need to run ./buildconf first. Which requires autoconf and/or libtools (im not sure, just what i remember reading) Bu when i run buildconf it says i cant find autoconf. SOOOOOOOOOOOOOO i went and tryed to install autoconf and it told me i need to check my systems' date/time?
