Hi!

Andreas Enge <andreas@enge.fr> skribis:

Actually =E2=80=98AM_PROG_MKDIR_P=E2=80=99 is used in macros that come from=
 Gettext.
Maybe newer versions of Gettext (will) use the new macro.

That=E2=80=99s because =E2=80=98aclocal=E2=80=99 didn=E2=80=99t find pkg.m4=
=E2=80=93the set of Autoconf macros
that comes with pkg-config.

Perhaps you need to install another package to get pkg.m4, or perhaps
you need to run ./bootstrap like this:

  ACLOCAL=3D"aclocal -I /path/to/pkg-config/macros" ./bootstrap

HTH,
