| Hello!
Hi!
| I'm a newbie in autoconf-ing, having (installation and) execution problems for
| autoconf 2.52b on alphaev67-dec-osf4.0f.
Welcome :)
| Testing seems to be relevant, though, as after installation I get for any
| configure.ac :
|
| % autoconf -v
| autoconf: running /home/cfd1/alphaev67-dec-osf4.0f/bin//autom4te --verbose
| --include /home/cfd1/share/autoconf --include . --warning syntax,
| autoconf/autoconf.m4f configure.ac --output configure
| Unknown option: warning
It looks good though. The trailing comma is OK.
| In fact, the options passed to autom4te look bad.
Nope.
| As these failures are really essential, it seems more probable to me that the
| error is on my side than due to a bug, but I don't know what it could be and I
| did not find anything related in the mailing list.
|
| The configure options I used for the installation are:
| --prefix=/home/cfd1
| --exec-prefix=/home/cfd1/alphaev67-dec-osf4.0f
| --srcdir=/home/cfd1/home/cfd/alphaev67-dec-osf4.0f/autoconf-2.52b
| --enable-shared
| --enable-static
| --disable-nls
| --without-gnu-as
| --without-gnu-ld
| --with-included-gettext
|
| (all the latter serve conformance with other GNU packages that I install
| by the same script and should be ignored by configure if irrelevant, I think)
|
| The installation is performed by:
|
| make install \
| prefix=/home/cfd1/stow/autoconf-2.52b \
| exec_prefix=/home/cfd1/alphaev67-dec-osf4.0f/stow/autoconf-2.52b
|
|
| I will be grateful for any advice!
Arg... That might be the problem. And maybe not.
Could I ask you to first perform an in-place build? Then we'll se.
Just a plain ./configure && make check.
