I'm running 2.69 on my machine as well and am not having any problems. Does autogen have some log that I'm unaware of? You could always tell it to leave you alone with -atvercheck=no, but that's probably not the right answer. Wesley On Jun 12, 2013, at 12:24 PM, Jeff Hammond <[email protected]> wrote:

Verifying the location of autogen.sh... done Checking if autotools are in the same location... yes, all in /home/jhammond/TOOLS Checking for autoconf version... bad autoconf installation You either do not have autoconf in your path or it is too old (version 2.67 or higher required). You may be able to use

autoconf --version

Unfortunately, there is no standard format for the version output and it changes between autotools versions. In addition, some versions of autoconf choose among many versions and provide incorrect output).
