autoreconf on mac os x

[linpin]

hi,
i`ve deinstalled autoconf via fink and try to autoreconf Xara again running in the same error:
Mac-mini:/Applications/Bildbearbeitung/XaraLX berndpier$ autoreconf -f -i -s
/sw/share/aclocal/pkg.m4:5: warning: underquoted definition of PKG_CHECK_MODULES run info '(automake)Extending aclocal'
or see http://sources.redhat.com/automake/a...ending-aclocal
aclocal:configure.in:9: warning: macro `AM_BINRELOC' not found in library
configure.in:56: error: possibly undefined macro: AC_PROG_LIBTOOL
If this token and others are legitimate, please use m4_pattern_allow.
See the Autoconf documentation.
autoreconf: /sw/bin/autoconf-2.59 failed with exit status: 1
don`t know what i can do to solve this prob.

ok, i running aclocal -I path/to/aclocal/m4 solving half of my probs, leaving me with the last error:
aclocal: configure.in: 9: macro `AM_BINRELOC' not found in library
where can i find the related m4 file for this macro?
thanx

Do you have a file: binreloc.m4 ?

Does autoreconf run autopoint properly for you?

hi,
yes i have binreloc.m4 under my xara folder. autoreconf in verbose mode gives me:
Mac-mini:/Applications/Bildbearbeitung/xara berndpier$ autoreconf -f -i -s -v
autoreconf: Entering directory `.'
autoreconf: running: autopoint --force
autoreconf: running: aclocal -I m4 --output=aclocal.m4t
aclocal: configure.in: 9: macro `AM_BINRELOC' not found in library
autoreconf: aclocal failed with exit status: 1
don`t know if autopoint is running fine, seems to be. do i have to aclocal -I and point to binreloc.m4?

yes i have binreloc.m4 under my xara folder.

The location of the m4 macros has changed recently. If you are using svn then please check your working copy with svn info or svn up. If you are working from a source tarball, then you probably want to start again with a more recent one.
