I am going to run ./configure with the following arguments:

? --enable-maintainer-mode --enable-build ?

It looks to me like the problem is the --enable-maintainer-mode argument. That's
a valid argument to "configure", but not to "autogen.sh". The autogen script supplies that argument automatically when it runs configure.

If you wish to pass additional arguments, please specify them? on the ./autogen.sh command line or set the AUTOGEN_CONFIGURE_ARGS? environment variable.

configure: WARNING: unrecognized options: --enable-maintainer-mode

Looks like someone removed AM_MAINTAINER_MODE from configure.ac. If that change was intentional, then autogen.sh needs to be adjusted. I rather suggest though that AM_MAINTAINER_MODE is added back.

Any option that can be passed to configure can be safely passed to autogen.sh. The latter just passes them on.

Hi,

we will need to have a look at the generated configure and config.status scripts in order to find out what went wrong on your system. Can you put these two files online somewhere?

Actually good question. I checked the revision log of the configure.ac file and since GNOME switched to SVN, no one removed this statement. I need to dig deeper I guess ...

Greetings,
