[Libtorrent-devel] rev. 1171 compilation error

[Hussain]

    Hi all,

    I have already installed `libtorrent-0.12.6' and `rtorrent-0.8.6' on
  slackware 13.0, but to support magnet links, I downloaded the revision 1171
  and executed the following commands:
  $ cd libtorrent
  $ autogen.sh
  $ autoconf
  $ configure

    But the `configure' exits with the following error message: {{{

checking for a BSD-compatible install... /usr/bin/ginstall -c
checking whether build environment is sane... yes
checking for a thread-safe mkdir -p... /usr/bin/mkdir -p
checking for gawk... gawk
checking whether make sets $(MAKE)... yes
./configure: line 2609: syntax error near unexpected token `1.9.6'
./configure: line 2609: `AM_PATH_CPPUNIT(1.9.6)'

}}}

    Any help would be gratefully appreciated.

  Thanks - Hussain
