Ok, I just got subversion installed and got sword downloaded...now how do I 
get it to compile with Mandrake 10? I changed some symlinks to point to 
automake 1.6 rather than 1.4 and I still get weird errors like,

aclocal: configure.ac: 148: macro `AM_CXXFLAGS' not found in library
aclocal: configure.ac: 152: macro `AM_CFLAGS' not found in library
aclocal: configure.ac: 154: macro `AM_CFLAGS' not found in library

aclocal: configure.ac: 170: macro `AM_CFLAGS' not found in library

aclocal: configure.ac: 210: macro `AM_CXXFLAGS' not found in library
aclocal: configure.ac: 211: macro `AM_CFLAGS' not found in library


and

*** Recreating configure
autoheader-2.5x: error: AC_CONFIG_HEADERS not found in configure.ac
*** Recreating the Makefile.in files
configure.ac:14: no proper implementation of AM_INIT_AUTOMAKE was found,
configure.ac:14: probably because aclocal.m4 is missing...
configure.ac:14: You should run aclocal to create this file, then
configure.ac:14: run automake again.

/usr/share/automake-1.6/am/lang-compile.am: AMDEP does not appear in 
AM_CONDITIONAL
lib/Makefile.am:39: variable `VERSION' not defined

and then it carries on like,

/usr/share/automake-1.6/am/depend2.am: AMDEP does not appear in AM_CONDITIONAL

for quite some time with the ocassional

/usr/share/automake-1.6/am/lang-compile.am: AMDEP does not appear in 
AM_CONDITIONAL

So....what exactly am I doing wrong?
