Problems with compiling libUFO

[PolitikerNEU]

Hello everyone, especially Hailstone!

I maybe wanted to try to make an In-Game map-editor (Try because I know neither OpenGL nor libUFO and don't know if I can do it) and since we should use libUFO now, I wanted to compile libUFO first, but the problem is, that:
*) ./autogen.sh gives me many errors
*) if I run make, it says

Code: [Select]

Running aclocal in the source folder does not help, what can I do?

Did you run autoconf ?

If so, you'll need to do some magic to 'recreate aclocal.m4 with macros from libtool 2.2.6 Debian-2.2.6a-4' or find and install the older version it's expecting.

If not, run autoconf, if problem persists, see above paragraph.

Making an in-game map editor is a big task even for someone that does know what they are doing. I've also decided against using libUFO because the skinning wasn't as flexible as I wanted; only changes colours not entire images. I've been looking into http://sourceforge.net/projects/openglui/ but I still have a linker error when trying to use it with SDL. I've successfully used CEGUI in GAE but it uses lots of type casts and it's very heavy weight.

I think improving the existing editor is the way to go. There has been a request for information in the status bar when the mouse hovers over a tile (such as height, and coordinates for the lua scripts would also be good). Let me know if you have any ideas.
