I'm running Ubuntu 9.10, and configure --with-contrib gets me:
configure: Tramp 2.1.9 checking for gmake... no checking for make... make checking for reasonable make version... ok
checking whether make sets $(MAKE)... yes checking for emacs... yes checking for emacs flavor... emacs checking for emacs gateway support... yes checking for emacs version... ok checking for base64.el... ok

checking for run-at-time.el... ok checking for makeinfo... no configure: error: makeinfo not found
I've also tried it with the previous version (2.1.8).
Any ideas?
Sorry if this isn't the right place to post this error, but I didn't find a bug reporting site or similar.
