This test is taken unchanged from esound itself (the esd.m4 included in
the esound distribution). Now, since you (Raimar) gave him (Raahul) your
aclocal.m4, he quite possibly has an esd.m4 which is newer/older/different
than the one he should/would have if he generated the aclocal.m4 himself,
including the esd.m4 presumably sitting on his own system.

Raahul: Look in "aclocal.m4" and find the version of the esd macro. Try
running "aclocal" and rerunning, then see if this version number changes
or if it works. Peek into your /usr/(local/)share/aclocal directory and
see if you have an esd.m4 file there, and what its version number is.

If you don't have esd.m4 on your system, you didn't install esound-dev (or
whatever the rpm is called), so try doing that. If the version number is
not at fault, Mandrake simply shipped a broken esound package.

Didn't you just move two settlers in a row?
