Hello Harald,

at first I have tried to compile wxMaxima on my Ubuntu notebook. I have
got the following problem, when I call ./bootstrap I get:

dieter at dieter-laptop:~/workspace/wxmaxima$ ./bootstrap
configure.in:54: warning: macro `AM_OPTIONS_WXCONFIG' not found in
library
configure.in:64: warning: macro `AM_PATH_WXCONFIG' not found in library

When I do ./configure, I get at the end the following error:

./configure: line 3940: AM_OPTIONS_WXCONFIG: command not found
./configure: line 3955: syntax error near unexpected token `2.8.4,'
./configure: line 3955: `AM_PATH_WXCONFIG(2.8.4, wxWin=1)'

The make does not work.

I have installed WxWidgets 2.8.10 on Ubuntu 9.04. 

There is something missing, but I do not know what.
