[postgis-users] compiling from source code

Okay I just got an irc note from Even Roualt.  He is running Ubuntu 16.04 and gcc 5.4  and had no issue running

sh autogen.sh
./configure 

So doesn't seem like it's a newer gcc issue unless if its 5.3 specific.  

I'm suspecting something with brew,  MacOS, or tool chain like autoconf.

What does:

autoconf --version

Return?

I get

autoconf (GNU Autoconf) 2.69

Thanks,
Regina

Hi Regina,

 Here is the output for gcc -v (install gcc from linuxbrew, which port of brew package manager of macOS):
