I just wanted somebody to know that I've been trying to test 2.53 on MacOS X and it just plain doesn't work. I'm not sure where it is breaking, but after running autoconf on my configure.in, the configure file begins as follows:
#! /bin/sh # Guess values for system-dependent variables and create Makefiles. # Generated by GNU Autoconf 2.53. # # Copyright 1992, 1993, 1994, 1995, 1996, 1998, 1999, 2000, 2001, 2002 # Free Software Foundation, Inc. # This configure script is free software; the Free Software Foundation # gives unlimited permission to copy, distribute and modify it. ECHO_N= ECHO_C=' ' ECHO_T=' ' ;; *c*,* ) ECHO_N=-n ECHO_C= ECHO_T= ;; *) ECHO_N= ECHO_C='\c' ECHO_T= ;; esac if expr a : '\(a\)' >/dev/null 2>&1; then as_expr=expr else as_expr=false fi ## --------------------- ## ## M4sh Initialization. ## ## --------------------- ## . . . Of course 2.53 works fine on this same configure.in on Redhat Linux 7.1. Both are using Automake 1.6. David -- ............................................................................. David L.
