[Mono-list] Building Mono! Please HELP...

[Joshua Perry]

OK  I am at my wits end trying to build mono.  I have automake,
pkg-config, the boehm GC and everything that I know of installed on my
RH8.0 system.  I have tried to build by hand, with the mono-build.sh,
and using autogen.sh.  I have tried with source checked out from
AnonCVS, from a nightly snapshot(20-10-2002) and with the release
tarball for 0.16.

autogen.sh both manually and from mono-build.sh looks like this:

I am not super experienced using automake and autoconf or building large
systems on linux.

I am really excited to start helping with System.Windows.Forms, but I
need to get mono to build fist! :)

ANY help would be appreciated!
