AFAIK the ‘texinfo.tex’ file that Automake 1.15 installs is good enough, as shown by <https://hydra.gnu.org/job/gnu/master/guix-0.12.0-9.25a4.x86_64-linux> <https://hydra.gnu.org/build/2017216/log/raw>. Can you try running “autoreconf -vfi” with Automake 1.15 installed? FWIW, I have: --8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8--- $ grep def.texinfoversion build-aux/texinfo.tex \def\texinfoversion{2016-09-18.18} $ grep def.texinfoversion $(find $(guix build automake) -name texinfo.tex) \def\texinfoversion{2013-02-01.11} $ grep def.texinfoversion ~/src/gnulib/build-aux/texinfo.tex \def\texinfoversion{2017-04-14.11} $ (cd ~/src/gnulib/ ; git describe) v0.1-1312-ga87d5e5c6 --8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8--- HTH, Ludo’.
