Hi,
I would like to build my own mc on my iMac running Lion (OS/X 10.7.2).
I cloned the git repository and ran ./autogen.sh but that threw
following error:
configure.ac:62: error: possibly undefined macro: AC_MSG_WARN
If this token and others are legitimate, please use m4_pattern_allow.
See the Autoconf documentation.
I reran the script as sh -x autoconf.sh to find out where it failed
exactly and I have attached the zipped output.
I checked the prerequisites mentionned in the above document:

I am not sure how to test the version of the glib library, so I decided
to run autogen.sh and see what happens.
The above occurs with the master branch as well as with the 4.8.1-stable
branch. It does not occur with the 4.7.5-stable branch.
Please advise how to fix the AC_MSG_WARN error.
With kind regards,
Thanks in advance,
Guido
