[Freehoo-users] Compilation problem

[Boopathy Raja R]

Hi,

Firstly, I tried sending mail to the sourceforge mailing-list and it bounced 
back stating that there is a problem wiht my subject line.

Hence mailing here.

Iam not able to compile gnuyahoo.

This is what happens when i try to compile

<start compile>

bash-2.05b$ ./configure
creating cache ./config.cache
checking for a BSD compatible install... /usr/bin/install -c
checking whether build environment is sane... yes

bash-2.05b$

</end compile>

OS : FreeBSD 4.7-PRERELEASE

I attempted compiling as a normal user and not as root since i don't have root 
access.

Compilation stops with this.

After reading the mailing-list I tried the following.

,----
|# cd gnuyahoo
|# automake --add-missing -c
|# autoreconf
|# ./configure --prefix=/usr
|# make
|# make install
`----

But, I tried that as a normal user again, and it gave me 

bash-2.05b$ autoreconf
automake: not found
bash-2.05b$


Please see if any further pointers can be give regarding this.

I hope gnuyahoo can be compiled as a normal user.
