What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?
sparsehash-2.0.2
Fedora 18 - X86-64 PC

Please provide any additional information below.
tarball contains both configure.ac and configure. Autoconf does not modify or 
replace configure, so configure.ac seems out of place.
Renaming configure to configure.backup produces a new configure file, with the 
following message:
]$ autoconf
aclocal.m4:16: warning: this file was generated for autoconf 2.68.
You have another version of autoconf.  It may work, but is not guaranteed to.
If you have problems, you may need to regenerate the build system entirely.
To do so, use the procedure documented by the package, typically `autoreconf'.
There is no autoreconf.
The new configure file produced the cited error list. The error list produced 
by the downloaded configure file was similar.

Hi,

the errors in the config.log seem to be mainly for testing the capabilities of 
the build machine. Can you confirm that a Makefile is not correctly produced 
after running ./configure ?

Also, have you got automake installed? If you want to play around with the 
build configuration, you'll need the parts of that package.

Let me know how you get on.

Cheers,
Donovan.

I have automake installed. I have little direct experience with either; in the 
past my ./configure/make/make install sequences have worked fine.

I tried g++ --help; it exhibited no -V option. Also, gcc has no "qversion" - 
looks like a typo to me.

Makefiles were produced; make all produces no error messages. I did not install 
before posting b/c of the error messages.

Install exhibits no error messages. Looks like your surmise was correct; 
installation indicates libraries properly inserted into /usr/local. If they 
work for me, I may or may not try to correct the build configuration - if I do 
I will let you know about it.

Thanks much for your help, Donovan
