I need Autoconf version 2.65 or higher I tried to update or install autoconf and I get this #yum install autoconf Package autoconf-2.63-5.1.el6.noarch already installed and latest version (really?) I tried to install manually the latest version but I am stuck on this (the name is configure.ac) git clone git://git.sv.gnu.org/autoconf Briefly, the shell commands "./configure; make; make install" should configure, build, and install this package. but... ./configure -bash: ./configure: No such file or directory root@server08 [~/tmpautoc/autoconf]# ./configure.ac ./configure.ac: line 19: syntax error near unexpected token `[2.62]' ./configure.ac: line 19: `AC_PREREQ([2.62])' root@server08 [~/tmpautoc/autoconf]# ./configure --prefix=/usr -bash: ./configure: No such file or directory root@server08 [~/tmpautoc/autoconf]# ./configure.ac --prefix=/usr ./configure.ac: line 19: syntax error near unexpected token `[2.62]' ./configure.ac: line 19: `AC_PREREQ([2.62])'

  Hello :) What OS is installed on your server? Also, have you considered trying to install it through an RPM instead of from source? Thank you.
