I am trying to build glib-2.36.4 on CentOS5. I understand that it would be wiser to upgrade to 6, but this is not possible due to customer requirements.
I started the make build and I got the following error. The error reports that automake-1.13 does not exist on the system. However, I built automake 1.14 and installed it. Version automake --version displays the correct version.
I set the yum list | grep automake to ensure the machine does not have conflicting settings.
I tried to deal with the problem, but I can’t think of anything.

WARNING: 'automake-1.13' is missing on your system.
You should only need it if you modified 'Makefile.am' or
'configure.ac' or m4 files included by 'configure.ac'.
The 'automake' program is part of the GNU Automake package:
<http://www.gnu.org/software/automake>
It also requires GNU Autoconf, GNU m4 and Perl in order to run:
