Description Matthew Truch 2007-11-13 00:01:00 UTC

Version:           1.5.0 (using KDE KDE 3.5.8)
Installed from:    Fedora RPMs
OS:                Linux

Compiling the kst 1.5.0 tarball requires automake, autoconf, and friends installed.  These packages should not be required for compilation, and may result in an improper and/or differing configure script in being generated on otherwise similar machines (depending on the versions of automake and friends installed, of which there are too many to shake a stick at).  

How to reproduce:
1. Make sure automake and friends are not installed.
2. Attempt to configure and compile kst 1.5.0, which failes.

Expected behavior:
kst 1.5.0 configures and compiles sucessfully.  

Note: kst 1.4.x worked properly.
