Hi, In the attached tarball, autoconf 2.72 emits a warning at configure-time because one of the files substitutes a value for @localedir@.
How to reproduce: $ tar xfz hello-rust-0.tar.gz $ cd hello-rust-0 $ ./configure --prefix=/tmp/inst --datarootdir=/tmp/dataroot ... configure: creating ./config.status config.status: creating Makefile config.status: creating src/main.rs config.status: WARNING: 'src/main.rs.in' seems to ignore the --datarootdir setting config.status: creating Cargo.toml config.status: creating m4/Makefile config.status: creating po/Makefile config.status: executing po-directories commands Look at src/main.rs.in: It has /tmp/dataroot/locale, which is as it should be. The warning is apparently because Autoconf does not know that configure.ac is already resolving variable references. I don't want to apply the workaround from https://www.gnu.org/savannah-checkouts/gnu/autoconf/manual/autoconf-2.72/html_node/Changed-Directory-Variables.html because I have a source file here, where ${...} references are not understood, not a Makefile. Since the Autoconf source code has a comment # FIXME: This hack should be removed a few years after 2.60. and 2.60 was released in 2006 (more than 18 years ago): How about removing this warning entirely now?
