Remove autoconf and automake RPM's and build them using the CustomBuild script.

Those files was in the box !

-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 1396855 Nov 18 2006 autoconf-2.61.tar.gz
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 1212534 Jan 22 07:06 automake-1.10.1.tar.gz
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 1150568 Oct 16 2006 automake-1.10.tar.gz

which is not RPM's , anyway , i did that follow this :

cd /usr/local/directadmin
wget http://files.directadmin.com/services/custombuild/1.1/custombuild.tar.gz
tar xvzf custombuild.tar.gz
cd custombuild
./build
./build versions
./build update_versions

i have some wrong with this ?

thanks!
 
Yes, but you have RPM's too. I'm sure you will get an output from these commands:
Code:
rpm -q autoconf
rpm -q automake
 
[root@host custombuild]# rpm -q autoconf
autoconf-2.59-12
[root@host custombuild]# rpm -q automake
automake-1.9.6-2.1
[root@host custombuild]#

get this , what to do ?

thanks
 
I told you to remove them :) rpm -e autoconf automake libtool

autoconf >= 2.58 is needed by (installed) automake-1.9.6-2.1.noarch
autoconf >= 2.50 is needed by (installed) libtool-1.5.22-6.1.i386
autoconf >= 2.54 is needed by (installed) automake17-1.7.9-7.noarch

I told you to use this command :) rpm -e autoconf automake libtool

If you want to uninstall one by one - add --nodeps at the end of command.

Please make sure it is installed and in your PATH.

Hello

Thanks for your help Smtalk !

Sorry for still asking about this autoconf and automake problem, but on another server, i have the same problem ... Just can update automake...

I dont understand when you just connect and do the same thing as me and it works ... You speak to the computer before ?

:)

Hehe :) I don't know why it worked for me without any problems. You can try to send me the other server's details, maybe there I will get the same error? :)
