Hmmm. Oh, I see, the Makefile.cvs stuff isn't as confusing to look at as I
thought it was...

Ok, so it's dying at the @automake line in admin/Makefile.common...

...if I type "automake" in the root kdenonbeta directory, I get:

xenu /home/paul/kde/kdenonbeta 136 > automake
automake: no `Makefile.am' found or specified

(This is automake version 1.3. It also happens with automake 1.2. Weird,
 it's always worked in the past)....

...now, if I type "automake Makefile", it works perfectly.

So, now if I change "@automake" to "@automake Makefile" in Makefile.common,
it all works fine. This is nuts. I have nothing weird in my enviroment
variables that would do something like this...

I will put it down to divine intervention. I feel I will go mad, otherwise :)

Cheers,

Paul.
