I would suggest, to follow up here, why you couldn't generate the
configure.
But, I would like to point out, that I would also favor the tarball
shipping with a pre-generated configure script, 
since the auto-tools are developer tools and not users tools.

It would be interesting, how RedHat fixed newscache 0.99 to compile with
gcc3.x or if they compiled this rpm with gcc 2.9x.

> gcc-c++-3.2.2-5

One of the main goals for newscache 1.x was that it compiles with gcc
3.x.

Hallo,

ad Makefile:
Please read the INSTALL Instructions:
o) Build socket++ and install (see INSTALL)

o) Build NewsCache (this example ist valid for Debian Systems):

$./autogen
$./configure --prefix=/usr --sysconfdir=/etc
$make
$su
$make install

You need also the following Tilman patch:
http://www.hstraub.at/linux/downloads/src/NewsCache-1.1.12-patch-Article.cc.
gz

ad newscache-0.99.22p1-1.i386.rpm
The executable is linked against:
ldd /usr/sbin/NewsCache
        libcrypt.so.1 => /lib/libcrypt.so.1 (0x40021000)
        libnsl.so.1 => /lib/libnsl.so.1 (0x4004f000)
        libstdc++-libc6.2-2.so.3 => /usr/lib/libstdc++-libc6.2-2.so.3
(0x40064000)
        libm.so.6 => /lib/i686/libm.so.6 (0x400a7000)
        libc.so.6 => /lib/i686/libc.so.6 (0x42000000)
        /lib/ld-linux.so.2 => /lib/ld-linux.so.2 (0x40000000)

and the libstdc++ version
rpm -qf /usr/lib/libstdc++-libc6.2-2.so.3
libstdc++-2.96-113

is used. With the actual g++ version shipped with RedHat 9.0 (3.3) you are
not able to compile the old NewsCache 0.99.*, because the C++ Standard has
changed. See:
http://members.aon.at/hstraub/linux/newscache/porting-howto.html

Announcement:
In the following days, I will release 1.1.90 with reworked authentication
and authorization model with pam support:
http://www.kernel.org/pub/linux/libs/pam/modules.html
