Installing C::B under Windwos took me a minute to finish. But it took me 2 days under Linux still with no success.
I'm using Redhat 9. Updated automake to 1.9. Installed wxGTK-2.4.2-1.i386.rpm. Downloaded C::B from CVS.
bootstrap gave some warnings:
# ./bootstrap
You should add the contents of `/usr/share/aclocal/libtool.m4' to `aclocal.m4'.

src/plugins/astyle/Makefile.am: installing `./depcomp'
configure.in:61: error: possibly undefined macro: AM_OPTIONS_WXCONFIG
If this token and others are legitimate, please use m4_pattern_allow.
See the Autoconf documentation.
configure.in:62: error: possibly undefined macro: AM_PATH_WXCONFIG
The configure also gave error message:
# ./configure --prefix=/usr
...
./configure: line 12528: AM_OPTIONS_WXCONFIG: command not found
./configure: line 12529: syntax error near unexpected token `2.4.2,'
./configure: line 12529: `AM_PATH_WXCONFIG(2.4.2, wxWin=1)'
Well, at this step, 'make' will not proceed.
Anything wrong? Or just Redhat is too old to use C::B without upgrading?
