Hello, I have installed a version of aclocal into /usr/local that's newer than my distro's version (I needed a fix from the newer version). But then I ran into a problem recently where the build of some package was failing because aclocal was not finding the pkgcfg.m4 file in /usr/share/aclocal. I created a dirlist in /usr/local/share/aclocal and added /usr/share/aclocal to it. That did indeed resolve the problem. But is that the best way to resolve this problem? Maybe this is documented somewhere, and I just didn't see it, but it took me longer than I care to admit to resolve this. Seems like it could be a fairly common problem. Have others solved it in a more clever way rather than telling system owners they need to create a new dirlist if they've installed aclocal in a non-standard location?
Thanks. -Mayanrd
