[kopete] SVN error when makefile.cvs

When doing make -f Makefile.cvs I get this error

./admin/cvs.sh: line 33: --version: command not found
*** AUTOCONF NOT FOUND!.
*** KDE requires autoconf 2.53 or newer
make[1]: *** [cvs] Error 1
make: *** [all] Error 2


I have autoconf installed so I know that thats not the problem...

I am using opensuse 10.2 /

Thanks for any h elp.

check the command in file ./admin/cvs.sh, line 33: i guess that should call autoconf --version

Here is what is there on line 33
AUTOCONF_VERSION=`$AUTOCONF --version |

i'm not an expert of those files, so perhaps someone else can tell if its correct.

I do wonder if that ` should be in that line...

AUTOCONF_VERSION=`$AUTOCONF --version | head -n 1`

what you could try is to replace '$AUTOCONF with 'autoconf


and then start the compile process again.

Source code

$AUTOCONF --version | head -n 1
bash: --version: command not found

 # autoconf --version | head -n 1

Had to change alot of lines in that file (seems like a problem with the script.)

now when I do a ./configure

I get

checking if C++ programs can be compiled... no
configure: error: Your Installation isn't able to compile simple C++ programs.
Check config.log for details - if you're using a Linux distribution you might miss
a package named similar to libstdc++-dev.


I have libstdc++-dev installed......

Make sure you have at least GCC, Autoconf and Automake installed. Look at http://www.kde.org/info/requirements/3.5.php for more info.

Figured it out. Must have been a bad install of Suse. I reinstalled suse and it worked fine.
