Help with doxymacs

[Suvayu Ali]

Hi everyone,

Recently I came across the library doxymacs[1], but I haven't been able 
to build the library. It relies on the GNU auto tools, and I am not 
familiar with it. So far from what I have figured out, these are the 
commands that I use to generate the ./configure script and the Makefile 
for the library:

> $ autoconf
> configure.ac:11: error: possibly undefined macro: AM_INIT_AUTOMAKE
>       If this token and others are legitimate, please use m4_pattern_allow.
>       See the Autoconf documentation.
> configure.ac:18: error: possibly undefined macro: AM_PATH_LISPDIR
> configure.ac:21: error: possibly undefined macro: AM_PATH_XML2
> $ aclocal
> $ automake
> configure.ac:11: required file `./install-sh' not found
> configure.ac:11:   `automake --add-missing' can install `install-sh'
> configure.ac:11: required file `./missing' not found
> configure.ac:11:   `automake --add-missing' can install `missing'
> c/Makefile.am: required file `./depcomp' not found
> c/Makefile.am:   `automake --add-missing' can install `depcomp'

However running ./configure gives me this error.

> $ ./configure
> ./configure: line 1775: syntax error near unexpected token `doxymacs,'
> ./configure: line 1775: `AM_INIT_AUTOMAKE(doxymacs, 1.8.0)'

Thanks for any help on this.
