I installed automake -1.10 and here is what I get when running autogen.sh on a newly downloaded sandbox:

julien at linux-zhl6:~/SVN-fr/trunk> ./autogen.sh --without-gimp Looking for latest automake version ... 1.10

I am going to run ./configure with the following arguments:

--enable-maintainer-mode --enable-build --without-gimp

configure.ac:16: installing `./missing' configure.ac:16: installing `./install-sh' Makefile.am:298: user target `.PRECIOUS' defined here... /usr/local/share/automake-1.10/am/configure.am: ... overrides Automake target `.PRECIOUS' defined here
configure.ac:63: error: possibly undefined macro: AC_MSG_ERROR If this token and others are legitimate, please use m4_pattern_allow. See the Autoconf documentation.

What does that mean? What must I do?

I ran autogne .sh again.
That time , the result is different :

Configure failed or did not finish!

What does that mean? What must I do?

I had a similar problem with compiling GIMP, but can't remember what I did to fix it ... Are you trying this under Windows or Linux?
