60* For Developers
61
62This source tree is based on the autotools suite from GNU to simplify
63portability. Here are some things you should have on your system in order to
64compile the subversion repository tree :
65
66
67GNU autotools (automake-1,7, autoconf2.50, autoheader2.50)
68(make sure your system wide "automake" points to version 1.7!)
69GNU Libtool
70(for more information, go to http://www.gnu.org/software/autoconf/)
71
72If you get the tree from the repository, you will need to use the autogen.sh
73script. It calls all the GNU tools needed to prepare the tree configuration.
