Re: [Tlf-devel] new databases added

[David Quental]

Hello Rein and others,

now it runs fine, I did:
got automake-1.4 from internet
then install it on my system
./configure worked fine, but make gave same errour
then renamed aclocal to aclocal-1.4 and automake to automake-1.4
./configure still had no problem and make worked fine.

Thanks for your help Rein.
Next 11 of juin will be Portuguese Contest Day, will use TLF but on 
SSB :) :) :) .

Best 73.
