1.
Running sh ./autogen.sh screws up the compilation of the BL on my machine.. if
I remove the lines responsible for execution aclocal in the actogen.sh script it
is fixed.

Why is aclocal run again? Can I remove this & commit changes to cvs or will this
break the code on another setup?


2.
running the generated ./configure scripts breaks, when I place the aclocal.m4 of
the bl directory in the root of the piper sources ./configure runs fine. Do
I have a broken aclocal setup? How can I add m4 macro's so that configure can
find them?


3.
during ./configure I get "./configure: AM_PATH_PYTHON: command not found". This
probably again is because a wrong m4 macro's setup?


bye,
jarl
