Re: building xerces from svn

[Alberto Massari <am...@datadirect.com>]

Hi Klaus,
we recently removed the precompiled 'configure' script in order to avoid 
conflicts with a different version of the autotools package that could 
be present in the system. So now you have to run the ./reconf script to 
have it generated from your (now mandatory) installed copy of 
autoconf/automake/libtool

Alberto

P.S. it would be better to send such requests to the c-dev mailing list, 
so that a) others can benefit from the answer, like you did from the 
archived mail you reference and b) you get higher chances to get an 
answer from other committers/users as well.
