[libhid-discuss] Problem with configure

[Tom Isaacson]

What version of autoconf should I be using? I'm using Ubuntu 9.04, and when I run ./configure I get the error:
checking for a BSD-compatible install... /usr/bin/install -c
checking whether build environment is sane... yes
checking for a thread-safe mkdir -p... /bin/mkdir -p
checking for gawk... no
checking for mawk... mawk
checking whether make sets $(MAKE)... yes
checking whether to enable maintainer-specific portions of Makefiles... no
./configure: line 2568: syntax error near unexpected token `pedantic,'
./configure: line 2568: `MD_ARG_ENABLE_CUSTOM(pedantic, pedantic compiler checks, no)'

Am I using an incompatible version of autoconf or is something else going wrong here?

Thanks.
