[Xiaofan Chen]

Recently the package name of libftdi-1.0 is renamed to
libftdi1 from libftdi. Is it possible to update urjtag to
accomodate this change? Thanks.

Okay, that is fine. Hopefully we will see a formal
release soon.

Just a heads-up, libftdi-1.0 is quite near to a formal
release. Now 1.0RC3 has been tagged.

+++++++++
libftdi 1.0 has been in development for three years,
the initial work was done by Jie Zhang in January 2010.

Main highlights
------------------
* Ported to libusb 1.x
* Many eeprom handling improvements
* Library .so / pkgconfig files are called "libftdi1".
So it can co-exist with libftdi 0.x
* ftdi_eeprom is part of the main distribution
+++++++++

Thanks. Yes it is in the latest svn now, but not in git yet.

I tried to build urjtag under Mac OS X but it failed. I will
try to build urjtag under Linux later.

1) AM_CONFIG_HEADER issue which can be easily solved by
changing to AC_CONFIG_HEADERS as suggested in the error message.

autoreconf: running: aclocal --force -I m4
/usr/local/share/aclocal/log4shib.m4:7: warning: underquoted
definition of AM_PATH_LOG4SHIB
/usr/local/share/aclocal/log4shib.m4:7: run info Automake 'Extending aclocal'

You should use the 'AC_CONFIG_HEADERS' macro instead.

2) I am not able to understand the following problem. Not
sure if it is a problem under my Mac OS X setup (Homebrew,
Mac OS X 10.7.5).

autoreconf failed.
