Running autoconf ...
configure.in:838: error: do not use LIBOBJS directly, use AC_LIBOBJ (see 
section `AC_LIBOBJ vs. LIBOBJS'
**Error**: autoconf failed.
root(eno,gnucash)# autoconf
autoconf       autoconf-2.53
root(eno,gnucash)# type -all autoconf
autoconf is /usr/bin/autoconf
root(eno,gnucash)# type -all autoconf-2.53
autoconf-2.53 is /usr/bin/autoconf-2.53
root(eno,gnucash)# rpm -qf /usr/bin/autoconf
autoconf-2.53-5
root(eno,gnucash)# rpm -qf /usr/bin/autoconf-2.53
