Fwd: [Liblas-devel] txt2las - psid only 1 byte?

[Volker Wichmann]

Hi,

I just did a fresh svn checkout (trunk, rev. 1294) and get an error from 
configure:

checking for debug enabled... no
checking for GDAL... no
checking for libgeotiff... no
checking for spatialindex RTree.h... no
checking for libspatialindex... no
./configure: line 21461: syntax error near unexpected token 
`$ORACLE_OCI_REQ_VERSION'
./configure: line 21461: `AX_LIB_ORACLE_OCI($ORACLE_OCI_REQ_VERSION)'

Any help appreciated,
Volker
