Greetings,<br>
<br>
I am having trouble building xetex from source. Today I downloaded
the source tree from<br>
<br>
<a class="moz-txt-link-freetext" href="http://git.code.sf.net/p/xetex/code">http://git.code.sf.net/p/xetex/code</a><br>
<br>
and in the source tree I ran the command<br>
<br>
./build.sh<br>
<br>
System is Ubuntu Precise amd64 with autoconf 2.68 running in a
virtual machine on Windows 7 Professional. Output is<br>
<br>
Your make is a GNU-make; I will use that<br>

If this token and others are legitimate, please use

<br>
In the files<br>

<li>source/libs/configure.ac</li>
<li>source/utils/configure.ac</li>

</ol>
<p>I changed AC_CONFIG_MACRO_DIRS to AC_CONFIG_MACRO_DIR. The build
made further progress. Now the end of the output says<br>
</p>

</p>
<p>...but I am not sure what to change next.<br>
</p>
<p>Any suggestions are appreciated.<br>
</p>
<p>Thanks,<br>
