i followed all the instructions but whats weird is i run ./configure and it works fine

then i run make and it does this:
[quote]intangir@kefka:~/src/mangler/trunk$ make
CDPATH="${ZSH_VERSION+.}:" && cd . && /bin/bash /home/intangir/src/mangler/trunk/missing –run aclocal-1.11 -I m4

To do so, use the procedure documented by the package, typically `autoreconf'.
/bin/bash ./config.status –recheck[/quote]

i have automake 1.10 (thats the lastest in ubuntu 9.04 repos)

and reruns configure..

it runs fine for quite a while till it says:

[quote]./configure: line 17833: syntax error near unexpected token `fi'
./configure: line 17833: `fi'
[/quote]

i checked the spot .. looks well enough to me. how am i gonna know whats wrong with it, its 20k lines or some insanity

so i tried the autoreconf it suggests.

run it again, all of the initial warnings are gone but i still get the same failure

[quote]./configure: line 17742: syntax error near unexpected token `fi'
./configure: line 17742: `fi'
[/quote]

i checked the history of the config file to see if that area changes anytime recently and not really, there were some alsa and pulse flags added so i tried without pulse and without alsa and neither worked

You're using SVN, it's trying to rebuild the autotools scripts, and you are missing some autoconf macros.

Use:

[code]./configure --disable-maintainer-mode[/code]
