The .m4 files aren't necessary for compilation, that's just a warning, and are not what are causing your compilation problem. Look a bit higher in the makefile output for the real error.

Probably I'm just missing some sort of libary or something, but I can't tell. Can anyone tell me, how to fix this problem (see below), without manually copying those files?

Thanx in advance

I am testing that you have the required versions of libtool, autoconf, automake, glib-gettextize and intltoolize. This test is not foolproof, so if anything goes wrong, see the file HACKING for more information...

checking for autoconf >= 2.52 ... yes (version 2.59) checking for automake >= 1.7 ... yes (version 1.7.9) checking for glib-gettextize >= 2.0.0 ... yes (version 2.4.1) checking for intltool >= 0.17 ... yes (version 0.30) configure.in: installing `./install-sh' configure.in: installing `./mkinstalldirs' configure.in: installing `./missing' configure.in:5: installing `./config.guess' configure.in:5: installing `./config.sub' Makefile.am: installing `./INSTALL' configure.in:25: required file `./ltmain.sh' not found src/Makefile.am: installing `./depcomp' libtoolize: copying file `./config.guess' libtoolize: copying file `./config.sub' libtoolize: copying file `./ltmain.sh' libtoolize: copying file `./ltoptions.m4' libtoolize: copying file `./ltsugar.m4' libtoolize: copying file `./ltversion.m4' libtoolize: copying file `./libtool.m4' Copying file po/Makefile.in.in

Please add the files codeset.m4 gettext.m4 glibc21.m4 iconv.m4 isc-posix.m4 lcmessage.m4 progtest.m4 from the /usr/share/aclocal directory to your autoconf macro directory or directly to your aclocal.m4 file. You will also need config.guess and config.sub, which you can get from ftp://ftp.gnu.org/pub/gnu/config/.
