<div></div>Hello,<br><br>I am working with the mpich-1.2.6 build system, and
trying to rebuild the configure script. I'm running autoconf version
2.59e (debian), and when I run autoconf I get the following
error:<br><br>user@host:~/mpich_please_work$ autoconf <br>aclocal.m4:414:
error: m4_defn: undefined macro: _m4_divert_diversion<br>aclocal.m4:414: the
top level<br>autom4te: /usr/bin/m4 failed with exit status: 1<br><br>I believe
that I read somewhere that I should be using an old ( 1.7) version of
autoconf. I'm not sure of the validity of this statement, and I cannot
find a version of autoconf dating back that far to verify it. Does
anyone have any suggestions?<br><br>Thanks in
advance,<br>C<br><br></span></div><div></div>
