Problems configuring from svn

[Dirk Eibach]

Hi,

I checked out kdenox trunk yesterday. In addition I downloaded 
kdelibs-3.5.1 snapshot. I built qt-embedded-free-3.3.5 with 
multithreading and rtti.

So I did

ln -s ../kdelibs/admin/

and tried

make -f Makefile.cvs

Result was:

...
*** Changes dropins to compile for QT/e earlier than 3.5 (se)
Remove special dropins for qt/e 2.x.x (if available)
cp: cannot stat `./../admin/acinclude.m4.in.org': No such file or directory

So I replaced line 533 in konq-embed/prepare_kde_src:

cp ./../admin/acinclude.m4.in.org ./../admin/acinclude.m4.in

with

if [ -e ./../admin/acinclude.m4.in.org ]
then
	cp ./../admin/acinclude.m4.in.org ./../admin/acinclude.m4.in
fi

So I tried again:

./admin/cvs.sh: line 33: --version: command not found
*** AUTOCONF NOT FOUND!.
*** KDE requires autoconf 2.53 or newer

I found that some environment variables have to be set, but I wonder why 
they have to. Maybe my autotools environment isn't sane (I'm using 
Debian stable).

AUTOCONF=autoconf2.50 AUTOHEADER=autoheader2.50 AUTOMAKE=automake-1.9 \
make -f Makefile.cvs

Result was:

...
cd . && make -f admin/Makefile.common configure.in

As I don't know much about autotools I'm finished here. Maybe you can 
tell me what I'm doing wrong or what a proper build environment has to 
be like.

Cheers,
Dirk
