I tried this one before but it doesn't work on RHEL 5.3:
aclocal:configure.ac:27: warning: macro `AM_SILENT_RULES' not found in library
libtoolize: `config.guess' exists: use `--force' to overwrite
libtoolize: `config.sub' exists: use `--force' to overwrite
libtoolize: `ltmain.sh' exists: use `--force' to overwrite
aclocal:configure.ac:27: warning: macro `AM_SILENT_RULES' not found in library
configure.ac:27: error: possibly undefined macro: AM_SILENT_RULES
If this token and others are legitimate, please use m4_pattern_allow.
See the Autoconf documentation.
autoreconf: /usr/bin/autoconf failed with exit status: 1
There's an easy hack to fix that. Just add this to the top of configure.ac
m4_ifndef([AM_SILENT_RULES], [m4_define([AM_SILENT_RULES],[])])
that just turns AM_SILENT_RULES into a no-op for places where its not
available.
