get pkg-config from http://www.freedesktop.org/software/pkgconfig

tar xvfz pgk-config-0.8.0.tar.gz
cd pkg-config-0.8.0
./configure
make
[ Become root if necessary ]
make install


get automake 1.4-p5.tar.gz at ftp://ftp.gnu.org/pub/gnu/automake
get libtool 1.4 ftp://ftp.gnu.org/pub/gnu/libtool
[2.13 works] get autoconf 2.52 ftp://ftp.gnu.org/pub/gnu/autoconf

[

	installed in /usr instead the (new?) default /usr/local
	or is it just a Suse 6.3 problem ?

	Fixed by :
		 ./configure --prefix=/usr & make & make install & make uninstall.
	Start from the beginning ...
