problems building linc



I have been attempting to build linc from CVS 'HEAD' using glib-1.3.5.
OS: SuSE Linux 7.1 (kernel 2.2.18)
GCC: 2.95.2
Make: 3.79.1
Autoconf: 2.13

Configure is dying with the following error:
./configure: line 1925: syntax error near unexpected token `AM_PATH_GLIB_2_0(1.3.2,,' ./configure: line 1925: `AM_PATH_GLIB_2_0(1.3.2,, { echo "configure: error: *** GLIB 1.3.2 or better is required. The latest version of GLIB'

Configure is looking for the macro AM_PATH_GLIB_2_0, which isn't defined anywhere. Running autogen.sh from a freshly checked out version of linc causes a macro called AM_PATH_GLIB to be created rather than the proper macro.

I was able to get it to build by putting the following macro definition from gtk+-1.3.5 into acinclude.m4.

Could someone with commit privs please add this to the linc module in CVS?

# This macro checks for GLib 2.0. It uses pkg-config rather than the now
