[erlang-questions] Building R11B-4 fails on Kubuntu 7.04 Feisty Fawn

[jla415]

I've had this happen before, it happens when you try to compile otp without
having m4 installed.  the build process leaves around the empty file that
was supposed to generated with m4 so you need to remove this file and start
the build over after you install m4.  the easiest way to do this is just to
remove the entire otp source directory and re-extract the source archive and
do the configure && make dance all over again.
