newbie needs help updating autoconf!
hi all, been looking through your boards and thought somebody may be able to help me =) Anyways, here's my problem: 1 I'm a complete newbie... 2: my system has/had(?) autconf version 2.13 on it... I've followed all the installation instructructions and whatnot to install version 2.52, but I can't seem to use this version when necessary.
[root@AlThor bin]# ./autoconf --version autoconf (GNU Autoconf) 2.52 <<<<--- ok, good, this is what I want Written by David J. MacKenzie.

autoconf is installed in /usr/bin in some distributions.
by default autoconf is setup to install in /usr/local/bin to install autoconf, type... ./configure --prefix=/usr make install so that it installs in /usr/bin |
Thank you very much, worked like a charm =)
Some day I'll get the hang of this =p -AlThor880 |
