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

[Mihai Balea]

Hi all,

I would like to thank everybody that answered this thread.
I managed to build it by doing a configure without any parameters.  I  
did have m4 installed on my system before, so I don't think the  
problem was related to that.

So it seems that everything worked out in the end.
