[jira] [Created] (COUCHDB-1633) ./bootstrap error -> "Have you installed GNU Autoconf Archive?"

----------------------------------------

             Summary: ./bootstrap error -> "Have you installed GNU Autoconf Archive?"
                 Key: COUCHDB-1633
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/COUCHDB-1633
             Project: CouchDB
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: Build System
            Reporter: Benoit Chesneau


Something new with the build of couchdb I didn't have before. Now when launching bootstrap for the first time I get the following error:

    $ make
    CDPATH="${ZSH_VERSION+.}:" && cd . && /bin/sh /Users/benoitc/work/couchdb/build-aux/missing --run aclocal-1.12 -I m4
     cd . && /bin/sh /Users/benoitc/work/couchdb/build-aux/missing --run automake-1.12 --foreign
    CDPATH="${ZSH_VERSION+.}:" && cd . && /bin/sh /Users/benoitc/work/couchdb/build-aux/missing --run autoconf
    configure.ac:65: error: possibly undefined macro: AC_DEFINE
          If this token and others are legitimate, please use m4_pattern_allow.
          See the Autoconf documentation.
    configure.ac:326: error: possibly undefined macro: AC_MSG_WARN
    make: *** [configure] Error 1
    enlil:couchdb benoitc$ ./bootstrap 
    Unable to find the `ax_check_icu.m4' file.

    Have you installed GNU Autoconf Archive?


I solved it on ubuntu by installing autcoconf-archive. But I have no idea how to do the same thing on macosx yet. Also it should be documented so far.
