Terribly sorry for such a basic question, but how do I tell autoconf (m4?)
where to find the macros so that ./configure will find the macros?
My guess the error below is because of the odd location of the macros?
I think this is redhat 7.
$ m4 --version
GNU m4 1.4.1
$ autoconf --version
sed: can't read /usr/share/autoconf/acgeneral.m4: No such file or directory
Autoconf version
$ autoconf --macrodir=/disk2/usr/share/autoconf --version
Autoconf version 2.13
$ autoconf --macrodir=/disk2/usr/share/autoconf
$ ./configure
