Hi
I did follow that Guide sorry but it's not

" without using "autoreconf" (just skip the step?)"

But i have no clue
 so i did the hole thing again  now and it change a bit but it's still the same
Compile error with cal3d :

h4a@Dagobert:~/development/cal3d$
autoreconf --install --force
/usr/share/aclocal/lib3ds.m4:4: warning: underquoted definition of AM_PATH_LIB3DS
  run info '(automake)Extending aclocal'
  or see http://sources.redhat.com/automake/automake.html#Extending-aclocal
configure.in:41: error: possibly undefined macro: AC_DISABLE_STATIC
      If this token and others are legitimate, please use m4_pattern_allow.
      See the Autoconf documentation.
configure.in:43: error: possibly undefined macro: AC_LIBTOOL_WIN32_DLL
configure.in:44: error: possibly undefined macro: AC_PROG_LIBTOOL
autoreconf: /usr/bin/autoconf failed with exit status: 1

It has maybe something to do with "autoreconf"  a friend tried it with Gento and "econf"
does the job  "autoreconf" not.
We both have v. 2.61
