A simpler way is to set the <font size="-1">WANT_AUTOMAKE variable. In your case, set it to 1.5 :<br>
</font><font size="-1">WANT_AUTOMAKE="1.5"<br>

<br>Ooops, I have fixed it! The following will only be helpful to (k)ubuntu<br>users.<br><br>(k)Ubuntu comes with automake 1.4 by default but provides seperate packages<br>for automake 1.6, 1.7, 1.8 and 1.9.<br><br>Using Synaptic I installed each version while keeping the original then just
<br>changed the link to "automake" to switch between versions which didn't work.<br><br>I then removes all versions of automake and installed only automake 1.6 (KDE<br>requires 1.5 but curiously, it's not available!) and now it works fine.
