Schweeeeet!
by Josh on Friday 01/Jun/2001, @00:52

Cool, I was wondering when this release would come about. Thanks a bunch! Two questions for ya:

1. What is a Debian APT source for this release?

2. To compile from CVS, what version of <b>autoconf</b> should I use? (I have 2.50 and it is giving me a faulty .config script)

Thanks!

I reported the problem and was told to use autoconf 2.13. But I won't downgrade. I will just wait until they fixed it to work with autoconf 2.50.

autoconf 2.5x has enough syntax changes that it's not going to work with KDE (and many other things) for a while; it's not a release version, anyway.

actually, search on lists.kde.org for 'autoconf' and you will find a patch to acinclude.
that patch + running 'autoupdate' should fix it

I just downloaded the DEB from debian.org foro autoconf 2.13. Dpkg did a nice, smooth downgrade and I got things to compile. Just hope that a full system update from dselect won't download the newest (2.50) from APT again and overwrite 2.13. Anybody know if that will happen, or will Dselect/APT respect my manual package downgrade?

Thanks!

in unstable, there is a 'autoconf2.13' package. just download it, and install it. if you keep autoconf2.50 around, it will use autoconf2.50 when possible, otherwise it will use autoconf2.13

However, unlike CVS, the alpha2 tarballs don't need autoconf, so I will stay with them a while.
