configure failure on OS X
I recently checked out a fresh version of CouchDB's trunk and tried to
build it. After ./bootstrap && ./configure I get the errors:
...
Running automake
Makefile.am:13: directory should not contain `/'
Makefile.am:13: directory should not contain `/'
src/couchdb/Makefile.am:35: variable `couch_files' not defined
Use of uninitialized value in concatenation (.) or string at
/usr/bin/automake line 8449.
: deprecated feature: `runner.beam' overrides `runner.beam$(EXEEXT)'
: change your target to read `runner.beam$(EXEEXT)'
git-bisect indicates that the failure was introduced with revision
687336 ("Merge runtimeconfig branch back into trunk").
This is OS X 10.4.11. I would appreciate any suggestions on what to try
next. Thanks.

Thanks Noah. Upgrading automake and autoconf did the trick.

Make sure to install automake and autoconf from macports too.
Make sure that after you upgrade you are using the upgraded versions.
Best,

So, I would check your version of Erlang, and possibly upgrade to the
latest. I use MacPorts.
Further, once you've upgraded Erlang from Ports, you have a bit of
work to do on ./configure
