Ok the servers are either redhat 7.3 or redhat 8. I can compile python
2.2.3 just fine, but when I attempt to compile librsync it tells me I
need a newer version of autoconf and auto make. I installed them and
tried recompiling but I am getting error messages still! Can anyone
help me out here?!
I also tried installing the rpm to no avail.
======here is error # 1 on redhat 7.2 -------------------
======trying to compile librsync ===========
/RDIFF/librsync-0.9.6#makecd . && /bin/sh
/root/RDIFF/librsync-0.9.6/missing --run autoconf

If this token and others are legitimate, please use
m4_pattern_allow.
See the Autoconf documentation.
