Using autoconf and automake. aclocal-1.11: command not found
Hi,

I'm trying to make my source "buildable". autoconf and automake tools are used. configure and Makefile.in files are created successfully.
configure.ac:
Code:
AC_INIT([main.cc])
AC_CONFIG_SRCDIR([main.cc])
AC_PROG_CXX
AM_INIT_AUTOMAKE(main, 0.1)

AC_CHECK_HEADERS([stdlib.h unistd.h])
AC_CHECK_HEADERS(mysql/mysql.h,,AC_MSG_ERROR([cannot find mysql.h]))

AC_CHECK_FUNCS([getcwd mkdir])

AC_CHECK_LIB(mysqlclient, [mysql_close, mysql_fetch_row, mysql_init,
mysql_query, mysql_num_rows, mysql_store_result, mysql_free_result],
,AC_MSG_ERROR([cannot find libmysqlclient]))

AC_CONFIG_FILES([Makefile])
AC_OUTPUT

Makefile.am:
Code:
bin_PROGRAMS = main
tdn_SOURCES = main.cc

But I have an issue when "making" the source code on other linux distr:
Quote:
[psergee1@localhost clc_lin2]$ make
CDPATH="${ZSH_VERSION+.}:" && cd . && aclocal-1.11
/bin/sh: aclocal-1.11: command not found
make: *** [aclocal.m4] Error 127
Why does it try to invoke 1.11 version of aclocal? Is this tool really required to build the source code? Any advise on fixing it?

Thank you,
