kdenlive bootstrap error

hi, im trying to compile kdenlive, the video editor.
but it gives me all the time this freakin error

Bootstrap is now trying to create a ./configure script suitable for Kdenlive
WARNING: running bootstrap is only usefull when checking out Kdenlive from CVS.

*** YOU'RE USING autoconf (GNU Autoconf) 2.60.
*** KDE requires autoconf 2.53 or newer
make: *** [cvs] Error 1
./PKGBUILD: line 14: ./configure: No such file or directory
make: *** No targets specified and no makefile found.  Stop.
==> ERROR: Build Failed.  Aborting...

aurbuild: could not build "kdenlive" with makepkg.

... "or newer", i guess 2.6 is newer thatn 2.53
whats wrong :?

Re: kdenlive bootstrap error

Doesn't look as though autoconf is the error.  Looks more like an FYI.  Can you post your PKGBUILD?

Re: kdenlive bootstrap error

Re: kdenlive bootstrap error

Again, not an autoconf error.  'bootstrap' Failed to build a ./configure file.

WARNING: running bootstrap is only usefull when checking out Kdenlive from CVS.
...
./PKGBUILD: line 14: ./configure: No such file or directory

I don't know anything about bootstrap.  But if you can get it to work, the rest should work.

Re: kdenlive bootstrap error

Have you tried to make the bootstrap as a normal user (not using makepkg). There might be an issue with bootstrap and fakeroot (look at my thread on emacs-unicode-xft-arch)
