I'm a Linux newbie (at last I have installed it Smile ) and now I'm trying to install Erlang on my Kubunttu. There were some problems with packages but I've solved them. Right now I can not

Post a build log from a freshly unpacked OTP R11B-2 tar ball,
complete with the initial ./configure command and the subsequent
make command.

The errors could be caused by 'm4' failures earlier in the build.

I think it is easier to use the packages and building the unstable
packages in a stable Kubuntu is a matter of a couple of commands. Add
the unstable repo to /etc/apt/sources.list, aptitude update, fakeroot
apt-get source --build erlang, wait some time and voila!
Yes, this is rough, if you need more info I can write a detailed
tutorial in my blog.

That explains it. You got broken intermediate generated files that weren't
regenerated once you installed m4, and this lead to the build errors you
quoted above. An rm -rf of the Erlang/OTP source tree followed by a fresh
unpack/configure/make sequence should have worked.
