[stunnel-users] Compiling v4.05 from source

[Ed Vazquez]

On an up-to-date version of Linux, I get this error following a 
successful config:

$ make
Making all in src
make[1]: Entering directory `/g/vs-build/stunnel-4.05/src'
Makefile:404: warning: overriding commands for target 
`stunnel.exe'
Makefile:265: warning: ignoring old commands for target 
`stunnel.exe'
cd .. && automake --gnu --include-deps src/Makefile
configure.ac:5: your implementation of AM_INIT_AUTOMAKE comes 
from an
configure.ac:5: old Automake version.  You should recreate 
aclocal.m4
configure.ac:5: with aclocal and run automake again.

appear in AM_CONDITIONAL

AM_CONDITIONAL
make[1]: *** [Makefile.in] Error 63
make[1]: Leaving directory `/g/vs-build/stunnel-4.05/src'
make: *** [all-recursive] Error 1

After running aclocal (completes with no errors), I re-run 
configure and try to make again:

$ make
Making all in src
make[1]: Entering directory `/g/vs-build/stunnel-4.05/src'
Makefile:404: warning: overriding commands for target `stunnel'

make[1]: Leaving directory `/g/vs-build/stunnel-4.05/src'

Ideas?  Suggestions?  Did I screw something up?
