Dear all,

trying to call autogen.sh after a svn up produce the following error:

Please add the files

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/.

src/Makefile.am:2: invalid unused variable name: `AM_LDFLAGS'

I have already googled and found something about that AM_LDFLAGS has
been introduced with automake-1.6 and that previous version cause this
error. Unfortunately I am not an expert in writing autogen-scripts.

Does anybody can help me out of this issue?

Thanks in advance!

Best regards,
Stefan
