Hi all,

I use Debian Wheezy and I try to compile the  git version of sed as follows:

$ bash bootstrap
[snip]
configure.ac:11: error: possibly undefined macro: AC_CONFIG_MACRO_DIRS
      If this token and others are legitimate, please use m4_pattern_allow.
      See the Autoconf documentation.
autoreconf: /usr/bin/autoconf failed with exit status: 1
bootstrap: autoreconf failed

Any hints on this issue?

Regards
