Huh? Works for me. When I use this in a configure.ac . $srcdir/../version.sh AM_INIT_AUTOMAKE(gettext-runtime, $VERSION_NUMBER) PACKAGE_NAME=gettext-runtime PACKAGE_TARNAME=gettext-runtime-$VERSION_NUMBER PACKAGE_VERSION=$VERSION_NUMBER PACKAGE_STRING="GNU gettext-runtime $VERSION_NUMBER" PACKAGE_BUGREPORT="[EMAIL PROTECTED]" I get this in config.status: s,@PACKAGE_NAME@,gettext-runtime,;t t s,@PACKAGE_TARNAME@,gettext-runtime-0.14.3,;t t s,@PACKAGE_VERSION@,0.14.3,;t t s,@PACKAGE_STRING@,GNU gettext-runtime 0.14.3,;t t s,@PACKAGE_BUGREPORT@,[EMAIL PROTECTED],;t t So the substitution of @PACKAGE_VERSION@ works. The only thing that doesn't work is the C macros PACKAGE_NAME etc. in config.h (they all get defined to empty strings), but you can easily work around it by using this in Makefile.am: AM_CPPFLAGS = -DMY_PACKAGE_NAME=\"@[EMAIL PROTECTED]" ...
