I just recently figured out how to compile things after looking at a
good README. Anyway, I have SuSE 8.0, and I was very excited to finally
be able to install the Liquid rendering engine, or so I thought. When I
tried to do it, I got this response:
matt@linux:~> cd '/home/matt/Desktop/mosfet-liquid0.9.5'

So I tried to install automake and autoconf. I think I got autoconfig to
install, but when I tried installingm automake, it came with the same
errors that Liquid had. I tried a few more applications, but all had the
same error. What should I do?
