Hello,

I'm trying to install yambo-4.2.4, but I have a problem with the creation of yambo interfaces, specifically after I type: make yambo interfaces, I obtain the following error:

checking for m4... no
configure: error: Cannot find m4 utility. Install m4 and try again.
Makefile:35: recipe for target 'configure-stamp' failed
make[1]: *** [configure-stamp] Error 1
make[1]: Leaving directory '/home/davide/yambo-4.2.4/lib/netcdf'
Makefile:141: recipe for target 'ext-libs' failed
make: *** [ext-libs] Error 2

(the Config.log file is attached)
thank you very much in advance!

Best regards,
Davide

Dear Davide,
it seems you do not have the m4 utility in your machine.
Have a look at these two threads and see if this solve your problem:
