I checked around and found:1. I have a clean checkout of gnu-apl in ~blake/Backup/apl (the build directory)2. There is an executable file named 'missing' in that build directory.3. I am running ./configure from the build directory4. I still get the same error. Interestingly, the error states that /home/blake/missing is missing. /home/blake is neither where the build directory is nor where I am running configure from.Thanks.BlakeOn Fri, Mar 6, 2015 at 10:46 AM, Juergen Sauermann <address@hidden> wrote:Hi Blake,
'missing' is a script provided by autoconf.
It is normally contained in the SVN checkout and also in the GNU APL tar file.
The message below suggests that it was somehow deleted. The normal place
for it is the same directory as configure and configure.ac.
So my question 1 would be: is it missing or too old?
If your top-level GNU APL directory is /home/blake (which would be a little strange)
then it is in fact missing.
If you have automake installed (you don't need to) then you can re-create missing with 'automake -a'
It could as well be that I should update my 'missing' file since my old machine broke down and the new one
most likely has a different automake version.
Or maybe you just ran ./configure in the wrong directory?

From above, what does the following mean?
/bin/bash: /home/blake/missing: No such file or directoryconfigure: WARNING: 'missing' script is too old or missing
Thanks!
