[Axiom-developer] I can't compile the last axiom on a debian.

[Francois Maltey]

Hello, 

Last month I try the axiom compiler. 
Then my laptop was repaired under warranty, and now I get it back.

I use the debian testing etch distribution, but I prefer to recompile
axiom from cvs because i make big mistakes with the unstable debian 
version and then I must reinstall all the system. 

So I get axiom from cvs and I type 

./confugure
export AXIOM=/home/fmy/Fabrique/axiom/mnt/linux
export PATH=$AXIOM/bin:$PATH
make

The first error seems to be : 
    ./configure: line 2412: syntax error near unexpected token `('
and the last ones are at the end of the make log.

Thanks a lot if you can help me.
