Me, too.  I reported the same problem.

Any idea how to fix it?  I looked at the relevant parts of
configure.ac
rather carefully and could not see anything wrong.  I'm
using the latest
Dapper autoconf version 2.59 and automake version 1.9.6.  I
wonder if
they are broken?  What versions do you have (there are
several automake
packages with Dapper, and the default is selectable).

I'm also using autoconf 2.59 and automake 1.9.6. But after
installing 
automake 1.8 or 1.7 instead (and rerunning autogen.sh), the
issue still 
remains.
I even tried autoconf and automake1.9 from Debian unstable
(on the same 
Ubuntu install), same result. But I have no idea whether
this problem is 
Ubuntu specific.

Neither do I.

Can someone please try this on a non-Ubuntu system?

Same thing here on Debian testing :

$ ./configure --disable-freebob
[...]
checking for ALSA... no
[...]
jack-audio-connection-kit 0.102.14 :

| Build with ALSA support............................... :
false
| Build with FreeBob support............................ :
false
| Build with OSS support................................ :
true
| Build with CoreAudio support.......................... :
false
| Build with PortAudio support.......................... :
false
[...]

Without "--disable-freebob", ALSA is found and
configured (I didn't go
on to the build phase though).

It looks like some kind of problem with pkg-config: I can
replicate the
problem (on ubuntu), then I can fix it by doing...

export PKG_CONFIG='/usr/bin/pkg-config' 

The failed (well, it fails on my machine) attempt to detect
freebob has
the side effect of setting this variable in configure, which
is why the
attempt to detect alsa works when you don't disable freebob
but not when
you do.

suse10.1, current jack svn, --disable-freebob makes the alsa
check fail too, 
dismissing --disable-freebob makes the alsa check succeed.

autoconf-2.59-90
automake-1.9.6-11

I have the same problem on Fedora 4 and Fedora 5.

I also have no idea why this happens, looking at
configure.ac doesn't 
help. Everything looks like it should as far as I can tell.

OK, got it....

/usr/share/aclocal/pkg.m4 contains the following comment:

  # Note that if there is a possibility the first call to
  # PKG_CHECK_MODULES might not happen, you should be sure
to include an
  # explicit call to PKG_PROG_PKG_CONFIG in your
configure.ac

and in fact the first call to PKG_CHECK_MODULES doesn't
happen if you
use --disable-freebob. So somewhere near the top of
configure.ac I
put...

PKG_PROG_PKG_CONFIG([0.0.1])

and that fixes it for me. That "0.0.1" is
minimum
required version of pkg-config btw. I'm not sure what a
sane value
for it would be.
