AFAIK aclocal per default only looks in a single directory for the .m4
files, and that is in most distros the /usr/share/aclocal directory.

"aclocal --print-ac-dir" tells you the directory where aclocal searches
the .m4 files.

Unfortunately, most packages don't install the .m4 files where they are
needed. So you will probably have to copy *.m4 from
/usr/local/share/aclocal to /usr/share/aclocal.

Hope this helps,
