Tesseract 3.01 Svn Installation on Linux

[GoogleCodeExporter]

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. make
2.
3.

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?

What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?

I'm using Tesseract 3.00 on Linux and I would like to upgrade to 3.01 because I 
found a problem with this command: "mftraining -F font_properties -U unicharset 
 -O lang1.unicharset font1.tr cntraining font1.tr".
The solution was to use 3.01 in SVN

After I run "make" appear this :

[root@ec2-50-19-136-24 tesseract-ocr]# make
make  all-recursive
make[1]: Entering directory `/home/kit/tesseract-ocr'

why you did not run:
./runautoconf
./configure

as suggested in http://code.google.com/p/tesseract-ocr/wiki/ReadMe#Linux or

From the beginning I was running:./runautoconf and ./configure 
but for first (./runautoconf) one I receive :
Running libtoolize
You should update your `aclocal.m4' by running aclocal.
Putting files in AC_CONFIG_AUX_DIR, `config'.
libtoolize: `config.guess' exists: use `--force' to overwrite
libtoolize: `config.sub' exists: use `--force' to overwrite
libtoolize: `ltmain.sh' exists: use `--force' to overwrite
Running aclocal
configure.ac:10: error: m4_defn: undefined macro: _m4_divert_diversion
autoconf/general.m4:1559: AC_CONFIG_MACRO_DIR is expanded from...
configure.ac:10: the top level
autom4te: /usr/bin/m4 failed with exit status: 1
aclocal: autom4te failed with exit status: 1

and for the second one I receive : 

 Configuration is done.
You can now build tesseract by running:

When I'm trying to run "make" I receive the error from the top of this issue.

try to run (after ./runautoconf and before ./configure):
autoreconf -i

Doesn't work with autoreconf -i.
Another's idea ...  ?

What linux you are using? What version of automake, autoconf, libtool?
