[Wiki] Note about autogen.sh issue

[zncdr]

I followed the building instructions for Unix (from svn) and I couldn't get past "autogen.sh" which printed the following error message:

Code: Select all

creating libtransmission/version.h                                             
aclocal: couldn't open directory `m4': No such file or directory               
autoreconf: aclocal failed with exit status: 1      

This is extrange since the m4 folder does exist in the working directory and all the dependencies are installed:

* local/libtool 2.2.6a-3 (base-devel)
* local/gettext 0.17-3 (base)
* local/intltool 0.41.0-1
* local/automake 1.11-1 (base-devel)
* local/autoconf 2.64-1 (base-devel)
* local/m4 1.4.13-1 (base-devel)

Arch linux does not do anything extravagant with these libraries and simply dumps everything in /usr.
After searching around the web for possible causes I came across the solution which consists in running autoreconf -i before autogen.
This problem does not seem to be anything special, Should a note of this be made on the wiki page?.
