I have installed - autoconf 2.57 - glade-2 (2.00-r1) I created a project in glade-2. When I wanted to compile, I did as in the tutorial "./autogen.sh". The script complained: FATAL ERROR: Autoconf version 2.53 or higher is required for this script When I checked the script the version check goes: (autoconf --version) < /dev/null > /dev/null 2>&1 which says version 2.13, due to autowrapper of autoconf it doesn't say version 2.57. I solved my problem by renaming 2.13 to 2.57 in the autowrapper of autoconf. But this is really a hack. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Create a program in glade-2 2. save and build it 3. run ./autogen.sh Actual Results: FATAL ERROR: Autoconf version 2.53 or higher is required for this script Expected Results: continue
this is not a glade bug, you should just pick the right autoconf yourself if the wrapper script doesn't detect it correctly. You can influence this by using ENV vars named in the wrapper script.
