Known problem, mostly fixed in the CVS version. Just run these commands

Fails. Apparently Pan depends on older versions?
I'd imagine so. automake is one of those weird apps where pretty much
each /minor/ version is incompatible. Where a normal app would change
major version if it needed to break backward compatibility, automake
apparently changes minor version. autoconf is similar, but not as bad.
I was hoping they weren't that brain dead. I created symlinks from
automake-1.9 and aclocal-1.9 to *-1.4 and it worked.
Thanks for your (as always) detailed response.
And, Phillip, sorry for hijacking your thread :-)
P.S. Will the ants outlast the roaches?
