RE: Problem installing with M4 Notes

Thanks for the reply Tim,
I found the problem.
I deleted the m4 manually, and reinstalled it. This time it worked fine.
I guess for some reason the old version wouldn't let the new version to
replace it!

Thanks :)

Well, if you're sure it's GNU M4 you installed, you'll have
to make sure autoconf finds & uses it.  You can either make
sure it's in the path before the system m4 (probably by
placing /usr/local/bin before /usr/bin in $PATH), or create
a /usr/bin/gm4 symlink to the correct m4 binary.
