The last time I successfully built the xf86-video-ati package was in 2016,<br>
when the cloned build tree contained a complete autoconf setup with an aclocal.m4<br>
and also various other build-related bits and pieces, and jhbuild ran autogen.sh and ./configure and so on and built it cleanly.<br>
<br>
But now there is no aclocal.m4 nor is there an m4 subdirectory, and autogen.sh fails with<br>
aclocal: error: couldn't open directory 'm4': No such file or directory, and all my attempts to build it manually, e.g. pointing the M4PATH at xorg-build/share/aclocal also fail.<br>
<br>
Obviously I am missing something or have omitted some step or dependency. Could someone in the know please point me at the right way to build it.<br>
<br>
Thanks John Lumby<br>
