color=#0000ff size=2>Thanks for using the PRF form. Yes, you are right, this is
a bug inthe packages. Someone manually made changes to the packages because of
errors in the release script and this package was created wrong as source only
package. We are working hard on getting everything in for the x.5.10 release
which is schedule to be the last beta (or micro release like I call it) for the
x.5 version, the next release after that will be x.6. </FONT></SPAN></DIV>

No<BR> On
Unix systems, did you run make realclean first?
No<BR> EXECUTION?

<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV> SYNOPSIS:</DIV>
<DIV>The ACE.tar.gz file downloaded from <A
onclick="return top.js.OpenExtLink(window,event,this)"
href="http://download.dre.vanderbilt.edu/"
target=_blank>http://download.dre.vanderbilt.edu/</A> lacks the configure
file and and other files, which exists in the ACE.tar.bz2 file from same site.
<BR> </DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV> DESCRIPTION:<BR>The 2 tar files above are different.
One thing that is affected is the configure with autoconf, which can not be
run according to instructions. ( create a build directory and run the
configure script ) . One needs to create the configure script first from the
<A onclick="return top.js.OpenExtLink(window,event,this)"
href="http://configure.ac/" target=_blank>configure.ac</A> file . </DIV>
<DIV>It is working fine with the ACE.tar.bz2 file.</DIV>
<DIV>Please see comparison below for other differences between the ACE.tar.gz
file and the ACE.tar.bz2 file.</DIV>
