Where can I find my autoconf macros directory?


Hi,

While trying to install a package I have I was given the following error message;
Code:
Please add the files
  codeset.m4 gettext.m4 glibc21.m4 iconv.m4 isc-posix.m4 lcmessage.m4
  progtest.m4
from the /usr/share/aclocal directory to your autoconf macro directory
or directly to your aclocal.m4 file.
You will also need config.guess and config.sub, which you can get from
ftp://ftp.gnu.org/pub/gnu/config/.
Where can I find my autoconf macros directory?

I use Fedora 7 on a 32bit laptop Machine (other than the 64 bit machine on which I have this problem)

Thank you,

Noha

BTW, I found this.
I would like to add another question:
What does this error message mean in the first place?

I hope I will be luckier!

Noha
