Description Sean 2005-04-26 18:37:39 UTC 
Version:           kipi-plugins-0.1.0-beta2 (using KDE KDE 3.3.0)
Installed from:    Compiled From Sources
OS:                Linux

I am trying to install kipi-plugins-0.1.0-beta2 from source.
The ./configure goes okay, but when I start make, it fails with:

seand@DARKSTAR:~/kipi-plugins-0.1.0-beta2> make
cd . && /bin/sh /home/seand/kipi-plugins-0.1.0-beta2/admin/missing --run autoheader
NONE:0: /usr/bin/m4: `m4_symbols' from frozen file not found in builtin table!
autom4te: /usr/bin/m4 failed with exit status: 1
autoheader: /usr/bin/autom4te failed with exit status: 1
make: *** [config.h.in] Error 1

I have no idea what this error means.  As far as I can tell, there were no problems in the configuration process.

Thanks!

what is your autconf and automake versions?

I ended up downloading a kipi-plugins rpm for my distro, so I don't have to install from source
