[CentOS] Bug in CentOS Autotools

[John J. Boyer]

The same project that works fine in rhel doesn't work in CentOS the 
configure script produced by autoconf is bad. I suspect that CentOS is 
not including a needed development file.

The project was developed over many years by autotools experts. 

If you want to try it I'll give you the URLs for fetching both 
liblouisand libluiusutdml from their repositories, or you can get them 
from the download page at http://www.abilitiessoft.com 
Thanks,
John
