Bear with me -- this is the first time I've used sourceforge, and I'm lready having
trouble with this ridiculously dinky text window that I'm forced to type this message into 8^).
I am having difficulties with code I'm downloaded from the CVS tree:
1) The documentation in the CVS dowload page is really too brief and makes too many assumptions for those who do not use cvs regularly. It ought be explain the process a bit more fully. Kevin Lenzo kindly
explained that I had to use the ./autogen.sh script in the source tree after the download, for example, though that is nowhere explained on the web site.
2) I ran ./autogen.sh after dowloading the entire tree, with this result:
tin[root]csh:138>./autogen.sh --prefix=/depot/package/sphinx_2
processing .

You should add the contents of `/depot/package/libtool_1.3.4/share/aclocal/libtool.m4' to `aclocal.m4'.

I've looked at configure and really don't see anything obvious. Any suggetions?

Well, usually after you have downloaded the tree and run autogen.sh it will run configure for you as well. You need to be inside the sphinx2 directory that is made fr you when you download the tree. Here is what I did and it worked.
root@tornado /root> cd sphinx2
root@tornado sphinx2>./autogen.sh
This will create and run configure for your system
root@tornado sphinx2>make
Will make the project
root@tornado sphinx2>make install
Will install the executables
You might want to download the tree again and try it. After you download it a few times, you'll begin to understand how it works. Good luck!

We have libtool-1.3, and we are having the same problem as rodgers mentioned on 03/20/00. We have downloaded the cvs-tree for sphinx2 twice, and still no such luck. We are running LINUX RedHat 6.1. Any help would be appreciated.

Check that the contents of libtool.m4 are available to aclocal. On
my Red Hat 6.1 installation, i have /usr/share/aclocal/libtool.m4 .
There is a particular macro, AM_INIT_AUTOMAKE, that is defined in
libtool.m4 that aclocal needs.
/depot/package/libtool_1.3.4/share/aclocal/libtool.m4 apparently
exists, but aclocal is not finding it. Try copying it to the local
aclocal/ directory.
